Through our
children and the Morris Area Public Schools Foundation, we can make adifference
today in the world of tomorrow.
A Overview
Parents, alumni and community members worked with West Central
Initiative to form a foundation to preserve, promote and enhance the quality of
education in the Morris Public School and community.
The
Advisory Committee includes representatives from alumni, the school, past
faculty and parents who all believe Morris Area Schools have the unique
advantage of offering the students an exemplary education.
With
your help and support, we will not only maintain but enhance the educational
opportunities for Morris Area students. The Morris Area Public School has a long
and proud history of excellence. The foundation was created to pursue 501©(3)
non-profit funding to assure the continuation of that tradition of excellence.
All
donations are welcome. Long-Term Gifting Strategies include gifts of insurance,
charitable annuities, gifts of retirement funds (beneficiary), living trusts,
bequests/wills, and comprehensive estate plans.
Component
Funds
The Morris Area Public Schools Foundation includes five
sub-accounts. Donations of any amount can be designated to a particular fund.
If no designation is made, the donation will go to the Universal Fund.
Universal Fund
The
Universal Fund gives the Advisory Committee the most flexibility in designating
funds where most needed.
Education
Donations help provide additional classroom curriculum and continuously improve
important programs such as Library, Band, and Choir.
Extra
Curricular
Morris
Area Public Schools is proud of their Tigers! Students are able to participate
in a wide variety of activities – from Speech to Basketball. You can continue
to cheer, “Go Tigers!”
Endowment
This is the gift that keeps on giving. The
principal is left untouched, while the interest will provide for grants and
other needs.
Technology, Equipment & Capital Improvement Fund
Morris Area Public Schools has wonderful
technology, but what school couldn’t use updates in some areas? This fund will
allow our school to keep up with changes and be on the cutting edge.
I would like
to make a donation!
