Home > About Us

It is the mission of the Brookfield Education Foundation to empower innovative education and foster lifelong learning within the Brookfield community.

 

This private, 501(c)(3) non-profit community foundation is governed by a Board of Directors which represents community and business leaders, parents and educators.

 

What is the foundation all about?

  • It is about enhancing education.
  • It is for program start-ups, not existing programs.
  • It is not to fund programs on an on-going basis.
  • It is for education for the entire Brookfield community, not just the schools.
  • It is not a replacement for items traditionally in the town or education budget.
  • It is not a replacement for anything our terrific PTOs , Parks & Rec or community organizations are currently doing.
  • We provide resources for programs.
  • Programs must have a champion.
  • We do not fund religious education programs.

The Brookfield Education Foundation is recognized as a charitable 501(c)3 organization. All donations are tax deductible.
