Vision

Tax dollars aren’t enough to build the level of excellence public school students and teachers deserve. Colleges and private high schools don’t rely on tuition alone. In fact, about 25% of their budgets are funded by significant alumni, family and community support. Public high schools have not had the benefit of those sustainable private resources. The Foundation’s support of school-specific philanthropy and grant-making puts superior experiences and outcomes within reach for US public high school students and teachers.

Goals

1. 1.Fundraising/grant-making is driven by the priorities of individual schools. Regular audits by outside accountants ensure support directly funds projects in the participating school community.
2. 2.Participating schools receive a dedicated fundraising web portal, as well as a best-in-class fundraising team, and alumni database. As funds are raised, schools may access funding for projects.
3. 3.Donations totaling $50K came in over 2 days as a result of the Spring Giving event. These strategic marketing initiatives, offered at no charge to schools, continues through the 2024 calendar year.
