A Present with a Future

As an alternative to a gift certificate or gift directly to a teacher/staff member, the Foundation invites parents/guardians to make a contribution honoring a staff member who has played an important role in their students' lives.

One request is made in early December. A second request is sent to parents of seniors in May.

Donors receive a letter acknowledging their contributions. Because the Foundation is a 501 (c) (3) organization, contributions are tax deductible.

Honored staff members receive a letter telling them they have been recognized and naming the student who honored them. Half of the contribution is sent to the honorees school to be used in programs that promote student learning; half remains with the Foundation.

A Present with a Future Donation
This year, why not consider A Present With a Future? A program of the Foundation for Eden Prairie Schools, A Present With a Future will allow you to honor someone special to your child while at the same time to make a donation to the Foundation and to your child's school. It works like this:
  • Your family makes a tax-deductible gift in honor of a staff member.
  • The staff member is notified of your gift with a card (the amount will remain confidential).
  • Your child's school will receive 50% of the the donated amount to be used for student enrichment, while the remainder will stay with the Foundation to help build an endowment.
The Foundation for Eden Prairie Schools has been formed to provide ongoing support for the Eden Prairie School District. The Foundation Board includes Eden Prairie residents, alumni, present and retired staff members and administrators, and parents. Our long-term financial goal is to offer enrichment opportunities for students. With the ongoing financial problems school districts have experienced, this goal is more important than ever. The Foundation is working with the district to determine what support it can provide.
