Lawrence County High School has recently been alerted by local businesses about the emergence of scams targeting the community. In response to these fraudulent activities, LCHS has issued a statement aimed at raising awareness and putting a stop to these deceptive practices. Reports indicate that individuals posing as representatives of LCHS sports teams are soliciting donations under the pretense of raising funds for advertising on schedules and field signs. It is important to note that these solicitations are not legitimate.
The school emphasizes that any official fundraising efforts for its sports programs will be communicated directly by the student-athletes or the booster club. The scams are primarily being disseminated through emails and phone calls from unauthorized third-party organizations. To ensure the integrity of fundraising initiatives, LCHS encourages anyone with questions or concerns to reach out directly to the school, coaches, or through their official social media channels. The support from the community is invaluable to LCHS, and they appreciate the vigilance of local residents in helping to combat these scams.
