Twenty-five percent of each year’s fundraising total is invested in an endowment to build interest for continued and expanded funding. Seventy-five percent is allocated for current needs.

There are many ways you can contribute to the DeKalb Education Foundation: restricted gifts, unrestricted gifts, endowment funds, donation for specific projects, bequests and memorial donations.

Contributions are appreciated at any time of the year. Many businesses in the community will match employees’ contributions to charitable organizations – check with your employer to see if your gift can be enhanced in this way. Many community members have supported the Foundation by including it in their wills or trusts.

All donations are tax deductible.

Your help is needed.

Please take a few minutes to support our schools and invest in our children’s futures as well as the future of our community.  Whatever amount you can afford to give will help make the difference!

You can donate using the Pay Now button to donate a specific amount or the Donate button to choose your own amount. The buttons are on the left hand side of our website and are linked directly to our Paypal account.

Thank you for your generosity and support in creating the margin of excellence for our students.
