Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Philanthropy, Public Foundations
Mission: To promote the importance of public education and to serve as a means for the community investment in the enhancement of educational opportunities.
Programs: The foundation for dubuque public schools (formerly the dubuque community school district foundation) promotes the importance of public education and builds community involvement to enhance education for the present and the future. The dubuque community school district started the foundation (dcsdf) as a means of developing alternative forms of funding education in our community. The board examines every possible avenue for raising funds, including applying for grants and solicitations from organizations and firms in the dubuque area who are served by the dubuque community school district. In mid-2008 the board of directors entered into a partner affiliate agreement with the community foundation of greater dubuque (cfgd). This arrangement allows the dcsdf to utilize the expertise and resources of the cfgd yet maintain autonomy in decision making and development.
