We are proud to announce the launch of the DGF School Foundation, a new local 501(c)(3) nonprofit initiative dedicated to enhancing the educational experiences of every DGF student. This is an exciting opportunity that we believe will greatly benefit the Dilworth-Glyndon-Felton (DGF) School District and our community as a whole. The Foundation will play a vital role in supplementing local education funding and addressing the critical gaps left by public financing.
The DGF School Foundation is a dedicated organization aimed at enhancing educational opportunities and resources for DGF students. In partnership with Dollars for Scholars, which has already secured over $400,000 earmarked for scholarships, the Foundation is poised to drive meaningful change and create a brighter future for our children.
At launch, the Foundation will focus on three key funding priorities:
Scholarships – Helping students pursue post-secondary education and training through expanded financial support.
Special Circumstance & Hardship Needs – Assisting deserving students facing unexpected financial barriers that impact their learning or well-being.
Matching Funds for District Initiatives – Partnering with School District 2164 to match resources that support innovative programs and strengthen classroom instruction.
Our ambitious goal is to raise an additional $500,000 over the next three years. These funds will directly support our three priority areas while fostering academic excellence, equity, and personal growth across the DGF student body.
To achieve this vision, we are inviting esteemed individuals and businesses like yours to become Founding Members of the DGF School Foundation. This one-time opportunity offers meaningful recognition and the chance to help shape the educational future of our region.
As a Founding Member, you will receive:
Recognition – Your name or business will be prominently displayed on our Foundation’s website, in our annual reports, and at major events.
Engagement – Exclusive invitations to special events, including recognition ceremonies and networking opportunities with fellow supporters.
Impact – A direct and lasting impact on students’ lives, empowering them to achieve their dreams and contribute positively to society.
