About Us

How is the Foundation governed?

The foundation is governed by a volunteer Board of Trustees who are responsible for seeking contributions, selecting projects and distributing funds.  The board of Trustees operates independently from any and all school boards and school administrations.  It does, however, seek out their advice and council at the time scholarships and mini-grants are being considered.

 

How does the Foundation fund projects?

The Foundation seeks tax-deductible contributions from individuals, businesses and organizations.  Contributions may be unrestricted or given for a specific purpose consistent with the goals of the foundation.

Here is what people are saying:
