The Asheville City Schools Foundation is an independent non-profit organization dedicated to educational success for all city schools students. |

Since its inception in 1988, the Foundation has: |
Allocated over $600,000 in community-funded grants to teachers.
Awarded over $770,000 in scholarships to students.
Recruited and trained hundreds of volunteers for tutoring and mentoring students. |
| What your donations equal: |
| $35 pays for one hygiene kit for a student experiencing homelessness |
| $50 pays for two hours of one-on-one academic coaching support for a student after-school |
| $100 provides one full day of arts education in your child’s school |
| $150 provides flexible funds for school-based social workers to use so that they can help support families in crisis and keep children in school |
| $250 provides supplies for healthy-eating and healthy-cooking classes through FEAST |
| $500 pays for a semester of college books for a graduating AHS senior |
| $1,000 provides an opportunity for a teacher to receive the professional development or training he or she needs to bring their best to each student |
| $2,000 provides an opportunity for a teacher to bring the world into the classroom by providing hands-on experiential learning, integrated arts, and new materials that increase student engagement and information retention |
|
To maintain our good work, the programs relies on community contributions. Only 8% of the Foundation’s total budget goes toward general operating costs,
and 100% of that money is raised yearly from the community. |
|
As part of our commitment to the Asheville City Schools, the Foundation accepts donations to designated funds.
