Spokane Public Schools Foundation

Vision

The Spokane Public Schools Foundation envisions a future in which learning is enjoyed and encouraged.

Importance of a Foundation

As an advocate for educational excellence, the Spokane Public Schools Foundation raises funds, gathers resources and acts as a catalyst to involve the community in public education. Donations made to the Spokane Public Schools Foundation fund programs which go beyond those supported through tax revenues.

These funds continue and expand the traditions of excellence and innovation in Spokane Public Schools.

As the second largest district in Washington State, this school district serves nearly 30,000 students in kindergarten through twelfth grade. With the present economic climate, dwindling state  funds and our continuing drive for school reform, the needs of our schools are great and ongoing.
Foundations are becoming a vital source of funding to provide “the extras"-supplemental materials, enrichment activities and extra support for students to reach their potential.

Spokane Public Schools Foundation was founded in June 2006 by a group of community members to enrich the quality of our schools, engage the support of our community, and enhance opportunities for all students in the Spokane School District.

Spokane Public Schools Foundation is a Washington based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
