Corporate Matching Gifts:   Donors employed by an organization with a matching gift program are urged to take advantage of this opportunity whenever possible to double or even triple contributions. Some companies also match the gifts of directors, spouses, and retirees. Several corporations currently participate in a matching gifts program.  Please contact us if your employer has a matching program and you need assistance in processing a matching gift.

Businesses and Foundations
The Foundation solicits gifts and grants from corporations and foundations committed to supporting education. We offer rewarding opportunities for corporations and foundations to invest in K - 12 education and facilitate partnerships that benefit both parties. Donations of goods and services to the Foundation, such as printing and special event underwriting, are very valuable. They allow us to lower operating expenses and contribute more to the schools. In-kind donations in the form of partnerships with schools are also sought by the Foundation.

Charitable Planning and Giving
A gift of cash is the easiest and most direct way to give to the Foundation. Donations of appreciated securities, stock, used cars, even real estate can also be made. Depending on the type of asset given, and the type of gift arrangement made, a donor may enjoy savings on income taxes (including capital gain) and transfer taxes, as well as gaining cash flow.  Contributions may be made to our general programming fund or directed to specific programs, projects or schools.

Fee Day Contributions
The Foundation in cooperation with District 303 is permitted to request a voluntary contribution during the annual registration procedure for each school.
