May 2009
More than 400 U-46 retirees are being contacted this month to make them aware of the foundation and to seek their support.
May is an ideal time to donate to the foundation--retirements, Teacher Appreciation Week, and graduations.
March 2009
Contributions to the U-46 foundation can be targeted. Recent projects receiving support from donations to the foundation are:
- Donations to the "Community of Readers" book drive for U-46 families facilitated by First Community Bank of Elgin
- Funds collected from Abbott Middle School alumni for the school's first sign
- Support from Sherman Hospital Foundation for high school students in Health Occupations Students of America
December 2008
The Foundation provided a way to give back to the students in U-46 while recognizing a teacher, support staff, administrator, colleague or friend during the holidays. Donations to the U-46 Foundation in their honor helped our students and acknowledged the honoree.
