YPS Foundation Fundraising Campaign
Founded in 2007 501 (3) (c) Non-Profit
Mission
“Assisting to preserve and/or enhance the quality of education for YPS students”
- The YPS Foundation funds numerous classroom projects, curriculum, and basic student needs.
- The School District of York has kept its budget to an average annual spending increase of 1.6% from 2009-2018.
- The State of Nebraska has decreased its support for YPS from $3.2 million in 2009 to $300,000 in 2018.
Due to the above-mentioned facts, the YPS Foundation has established its first annual donor campaign. Funding classroom needs remain our first focus. We also hope to grow our endowment fund which will allow us to fulfill our mission and provide substantial and reliable funds for the future.
We encourage any in the York community and beyond to consider becoming a Friend of the Foundation.
All donors will be recognized on the YPS web page, on the electronic screens at all three schools, in our YPS Foundation publications, the York News-Times, and at our annual Recognition Reception.
