WATCH: LMHS 'Lip Dub' Video Helping Struggling Philly School​

LOWER MERION, PA – Lower Merion High School is partnering with the John H. Webster Elementary School in Philadelphia's Kensington area to help generate crucial funds for the school, and the LMHS students got creative in spreading the message.

Students put together a "lip dub" video set to Jess Glynne's song "Hold My Hand."

The video features LMHS and Webster students and is truly remarkable and moving.

The video aims to spread the word about the Kensington school's effort to raise $20,000 due to budget constraints and high out of pocket expenses for teachers, according to Lower Merion School District.

A GoFundMe campaign has been launched to help generate money for the school, which has seen teachers paying hundreds of dollars a year, out of pocket, for classroom supplies.

Since launching April 17, nearly $6,000 of the $20,000 goal has been raised as of April 27.

Raised funds will be used for:

• Weekly Readers from Scholastic and Time Magazine to function as Science and Social Studies curriculum.
• High interest, low-level nonfiction books to be used for guided reading and small group literacy instruction in order to help raise students' reading levels.
• All necessary materials that will be used to supplement the educational needs of Webster students.
• Webster also could use company funding to purchase student uniforms, underwear, coats, and school bags.
• Supplemental technology needs.

You can donate to the GoFundMe campaign online here.
