Foundation for Education
It has been a busy summer at the Foundation, and we look forward to another year of supporting you and your students. A couple of recent highlights include:
-
Deek’s Pizza Back-to-School Fundraiser brought in over $13K, which will be distributed across the district. THANK YOU to Deek's Pizza and all those who supported/shared the event.
-
The Fashion Affair raised over $13K for school meal scholarships, WOW! Again, big thanks to the Fashion Affair organizing committee and their attendees!
-
School supply donations from Bremer, Gate City, RRV Habitat for Humanity, Scheels, and more have been rolling in. We are so grateful for the community contributions to help our students get off to a great start this school year!
This email is full of important information, and if you don’t have time to get through it right away, we hope you will save it and return to it when you do.
