These programs were made possible though generous funding from individuals like you.  
With Your Help, the Asheville City Schools Foundation will:

  • Provide thousands of students with relevant, engaging programs.  
  • Provide college scholarships to exceptional students graduating from high schools in the ACS district, many with financial need.
  • Conduct research that shapes the way we serve students in Asheville. With your help, we can bring research-based practices through our Foundation Fellows Program in to schools. 
  • With your help can also continue to nurture and provide a framework for community-based partnerships that extend learning beyond the school day.
  • Engage the public as advocates for public education. Because of you we can provide important information to parents and guardians who are making decisions about education.
  • Develop community-school collaborations like the Teaching Artists Presenting in Asheville Schools (TAPAS) program that enhance learning every day for students across the ACS district.

Remember to ask if your employer has a matching gift program; you may be able to double your gift!
