Supporting Vancouver School District Kids

The mission of the Foundation is to bring together the resources of the community to supplement and enhance student achievement.

More than 22,000 students walk through the doors of Vancouver Public Schools each day. From tiny tots with special needs to elementary, middle and high school students, they attend 35 different schools. Nearly half of our students qualify for subsidized meals, a federal indicator of poverty. The Vancouver School District Foundation—a non profit children’s organization—exists to ensure the basic needs of all those children are met so that they can come to school healthy, happy and ready to learn.

The Vancouver School District Foundation is a 501 (c) (3) non profit organization. Accordingly, all donations are tax–deductible as allowed by law.

Basic Needs

Children cannot be successful in school if they’re sick, hungry or worried about other basic needs. The Foundation—a non profit children’s organization—exists to ensure that basic needs for Vancouver kids are met—from immunizations to hygiene items. Thanks to the generous donations and support of the community, we are able to direct needed resources to meet the basic physical and mental health needs of students in the Vancouver School District.

We do this by working closely with clinics like Free Clinic of Southwest Washington to offer low–cost services to students from low–income or uninsured families. We also sponsor an Emergency Checkbook program, ensuring each district principal has immediate access to meet emergency student needs. And Foundation–supported Family Community Resource Centers are valuable havens for neighborhood youth and families.
