Who Are We?
|
|
|
The Foundation for
Davenport Schools is a grass-roots
organization whose mission is to develop
and provide community based support to
strengthen the academic, cultural and
scholarship opportunities for Davenport
School District students and staff. As a
private non-profit 501© (3)
organization, the foundation has the
flexibility to seek, accept, invest, and
channel funds without the restrictions
imposed on public school districts. The
board of directors are volunteers who
have made a commitment to donate their
time and talents to the foundation. The
foundation is participating in the
no-fee Washington State Education
Foundations Network that currently
includes twenty foundations similar to
the FDS. |

How Is The Foundation
Funded? |
|
|
We are funded by a
variety of activities including an
annual yard sale the fourth Saturday in
September. Individuals or
groups are encouraged to donate funds
for specific projects, such as
scholarships, or they may choose to give
undesignated funds that may be used to
meet a broad range of requests. A
separate endowment fund has been
established to ensure funding far into
the future. Large amounts, such as the
Dale Wilson Scholarship fund, are
professionally managed. |

a variety of gifts. All donations are
tax deductible. For more information,
please call any member of the board and a board member
will contact you. The foundation will
work with you to accommodate your
wishes. |
