The Caledonia Education Foundation’s mission is to continue a tradition of excellence within Caledonia Community Schools by providing staff grants, senior scholarships, and essential funds for students in need. We are proud to impact students, all CCS staff personnel, and our community—now and in the future.
This year, donor support made a meaningful difference across the district. More than $40,000 was invested directly into classrooms, helping teachers bring innovative ideas, new resources, and enhanced learning experiences to their students. Over $20,000 was awarded in student scholarships, giving Caledonia graduates the support they need to pursue college, skilled trades, and other post-secondary opportunities. An additional $10,000 was directed toward essential needs funds, ensuring that students facing challenges have access to clothing, hygiene items, food support, and other basic necessities that allow them to focus on learning.
These accomplishments are worth celebrating, and they reflect a community that deeply believes in its schools. But the need continues to grow. Teachers have more ideas they hope to bring to life. Students continue to seek opportunities that will shape their futures. Families continue to encounter unexpected hardships that affect their children’s ability to thrive in school. The CEF wants to meet these needs, but we cannot do it alone.
To continue saying yes to more classrooms grants, more scholarships, and more students in need, we rely on the generosity of supporters like you. Giving Tuesday is an opportunity for our community to come together and ensure that Caledonia students have the resources, support, and opportunities they deserve.
Your donation directly fuels the next classroom project, the next scholarship award, and the next essential item placed in the hands of a student who needs it. Your support helps us expand our reach, deepen our impact, and build a stronger future for Caledonia.
We invite you to join us. Your gift—of any size—helps the Caledonia Education Foundation continue its mission and do even more for CCS students and staff in the year ahead. Thank you!
