Wells Fargo & Company (NYSE:WFC), one of America's leading community banks, announced today it is teaming up for a second season with FOX Sports West, Partnership for Los Angeles Schools and the Los Angeles Kings to "Score One for LA's Kids." The campaign will again help donate $1,000 for every goal scored by the LA Kings in the 2013-14 regular season in support of teacher development programs at Partnership schools. During last year's campaign, $150K was raised for technology in the classroom, which impacted up to 12,000 students.

Specifically, funds raised this season will go towards specialized teacher development programs for Partnership teachers who work in LA's toughest neighborhoods; and in classrooms where a student can be up to five grade levels behind and class sizes exceed 35 students. Given these special circumstances, Partnership teachers need extra support to be more effective. The programs will provide teachers with the tools and training they need to close the achievement gap faster among their students and revolutionize teaching in LA by developing a core group of teachers who can help change the culture at their schools to positively impact student academic success.

This year a new component has been added to the campaign in which LA Kings fans can also make donations using their cell phones by texting the word GOAL to 68494. Fans can also track the campaign's success by visiting www.PartnershipLA.org/ScoreOne. So far the LA Kings have scored 41 goals since Dec. 2, bringing the total amount raised to $41,000. The text-to-pledge campaign will be promoted on FOX Sports West via on-air spots that will be broadcast during LA Kings games.

About the Partnership

Last year, the Partnership schools outperformed the district and state in every subject area covered by the California Standards Tests, (CSTs).
