TOGETHER WE INVEST IN GREAT
OUR MISSION
Enhance the potential of students
Promote excellence in teaching
Inspire innovation in education
Guided by strategic philanthropy.
EVERY WEEK, it seems, vibrant Sarasota
County, Florida, lands at the top of another
superlatives list.
Residents and businesses fortunate to call
this area home have become accustomed
to accolades: best beaches, restaurants,
art, neighborhoods, health care and a
top-notch public school system.
The link between highly rated schools
and the Sarasota area’s array of honors is
not surprising. Study after study shows that
communities that prioritize public education
are healthier, wealthier and
more adaptable.
Focused exclusively on
public schools since our
founding in 1988, the
Education Foundation of Sarasota
County has been a partner with
Sarasota County Schools, investing in
innovative programs and initiatives that
enrich the learning experience for countless
students and teachers. They, in turn, spread
newly discovered ideas, methods, facts
and expertise beyond the classroom.
No question about it. In words and
deeds, Sarasota County citizens have an
enviable track record of demonstrating a
keen appreciation for education as an
essential underpinning of a flourishing
community. Against this laudatory
backdrop, the Education Foundation is
inspiring the community to join us in
raising our sights even higher to propel
our students and teachers forward. The
Education Foundation is prepared to
expand and amplify the dialogue on
education in the community. By working
together, we can go “all-out” to aspire
higher and stimulate positive, innovative
learning experiences for all students.
The Education Foundation invests in innovative programs and initiatives
that enrich the learning experience for countless students and teachers.
