The John Lynch Foundation is excited to announce a new partnership with Tokyo Joe's, the Denver based restaurant chain, which will benefit local teachers, coaches and student-athletes. Joe's will support the JLF's mission of developing young leaders, by offering exciting incentives to those who participate in the Star of the Month program.

The Star of the Month program recognizes student-athletes who excel in academics, athletics and community involvement. Teachers and coaches can nominate students through this website.

In an effort to get more teachers / coaches to participate we will randomly choose one teacher / coach that nominates a student-athlete and their school's entire faculty and staff will win a catered lunch courtesy of Tokyo Joe's! Tokyo Joe's will also provide a free family dinner for each of the monthly Star of the Month winners.
