Funding extraordinary learning experiences in STEM +A-Rts for Apollo-Ridge students
The Foundation was established in 1996 for the purpose of providing ten $500 teacher grants each school year. Funding for those grants came from membership dues and several small fund raisers over the course of the year.
​
Beginning in 2011, the Foundation began the process of becoming an Educational Improvement Organization as part of Pennsylvania's Educational Improvement Tax Credit program. Beginning with a $5000 donation in 2012, the Foundation now receives $32,000 annually.
​
In 2014, the Foundation reorganized and brought on trustees with experience in grant writing and event planning. Donations from these efforts sit at $40,000 per year.
​
Our annual reports applaud the success of the trustees' efforts and the benefits reaped by the students.
