FERNBANK ELEMENTARY FOUNDATION
Our Mission
Formed in 2009, the Fernbank Elementary School Foundation is a non-profit organization. It contributes to the long-term development and success of Fernbank Elementary School by raising and managing funds for supplemental educational enhancements. The Foundation's support augments county resources, filling in the gaps to give Fernbank students the special tools they need for further success.
Making a Difference
The Foundation is supported by our amazing community donors! The generosity of the Fernbank families and community over the years has helped transform our school into a world-class learning community. All donations go directly to support academic endeavors that are not funded by the county. Our board works with Fernbank's administration to pinpoint and address the gaps in funding from the county or determine areas where teachers could use extra training or materials.
Be Part of the Impact
The Foundation raises funds throughout the year but two signature events raise the majority of our budget.
Fund the Fern is our annual giving campaign. The Fernbank Auction is hosted in the Spring each year.
The Foundation supports and works alongside the PTA.
The Fernbank Elementary School Foundation is a 501(c)(3) (EIN #:26-4028143), so your gift is always tax-deductible to the full extent allowable by law. Our fiscal calendar follows the school calendar and is August 1-July 31.
