Our core values:

• Collaboration – Individually, we can all make an impact. Together, that impact is multiplied. By uniting as communities of individuals, families, and local businesses, we’re helping to financially support an enriched education for all students in Eastern Carver County Schools.

• Recognition – Recognizing the hard work, innovation, and passion of our teachers is a cornerstone of the work we do. As a foundation, we are committed to honoring and celebrating our educators for the impacts they are creating every day for our students.

• Support – It’s our goal to reinforce the work already being done in Eastern Carver County Schools, supporting their mission in all we do. Our role is not to replace funding or take the place of the district’s budget. Instead, the foundation is here to create opportunities and meet needs outside current budgets.

• Stewardship –  Responsible stewardship is a cornerstone of all we do. Donations that the foundation raises and monies that it is responsible for managing remain in Eastern Carver County Schools. We work hard to ensure that every dollar is directed toward the projects or needs that will create the greatest impact for our students, while ensuring every donor feels valued.
