Partner

The Foundation's Partnership Program offers an official opportunity for local businesses that serve our community to work seamlessly with the Foundation and its chapters. Partnerships create a win-win dynamic by elevating your business and creating awareness in our community, while generating financial resources or other benefits for Douglas County students, teachers, schools and district employees. As a Foundation partner, you will be recognized through our website, social media channels, event program collateral (when appropriate), and at special events. Partnerships are reviewed annually.
