Legal Defense Fund:David Kissner Dismissal Attempt
Donation protected
To know the Kissners is to know how much they selflessly serve others. I have been a beneficiary of David’s efforts - my daughter, who is now grown and married, thrived and grew as a leader and as a young adult under his guidance.
When reflecting on the inspirational people in one's life, many might think about an impactful teacher. David Kissner is just that person. He is being persecuted right now and his job is being jeopardized by those who would seek to punish him for having and expressing divergent views. He needs our help.
David goes above and beyond as a 14-year educator and a wrestling coach, and he and his family have spent their free time over many years serving kids and the community by organizing outdoor adventures. David's entire life has been about service, extending to his previous career as a US Marine Officer and combat veteran.
David models courage and character for the young people he works with. He has shown a readiness to stand up for what he believes in, and has done so with composure, even in the face of great criticism, harassment, and personal cost. Over the last few years, David has spoken up against certain policies and practices at his school district, and more recently, he led a successful campaign to defeat a local ballot measure.
It would appear that now, in retaliation for David's public positions, the Loma Prieta School District is attempting to dismiss him from his teaching position.
This campaign is to raise funds for David's legal defense against these arbitrary and capricious actions against him. This is a campaign not just for David and his family, but also to make a stand against those who would seek to silence and destroy those with whom they disagree.
David and his family - as well as the countless kids and families who he has positively impacted over his 14-year teaching career - are grateful for any donation you can make towards his legal defense. Please share this as widely as possible as we stand up for David, his family, the community, and for the values of diversity of thought and idea and freedom of speech.
Thank you for your support!
