The foundation for douglas county schools
Expanding Educational Opportunities for Students
We work to enrich the student experience and promote innovation by engaging our community in supporting students. The Foundation makes targeted investments in Douglas County schools and programs to accelerate student achievement and skill development, encourage and develop great teachers, and expand community involvement in our schools.
The Foundation for Douglas County Schools is proud to continue to honor exceptional educators and staff who are inspiring a love of learning in students and are trailblazing extraordinary innovation in our schools at the annual Apple Award Gala.
The Foundation for Douglas County Schools coordinates the Lend A Hand School Supply Drive every summer, with the goal of collecting, purchasing, assembling and distributing backpacks and school supplies to students in need.
The primary goal of the annual Perseverance Golf Tournament is to raise funds for the Perseverance Scholarship* for Douglas County graduates, but it will also be a great way to connect DCSD staff prior to the start of the 2024-25 school year.
The annual Building the Dream Gala brings out the Douglas County community to honor the amazing students, cherished teachers, exceptional schools, and extraordinary programs of the Douglas County School District!
