Grinnell-Newburg School Foundation

Grinnell-Newburg School Foundation GNSF promotes excellence in the Grinnell-Newburg public schools through fundraising efforts. Enhancing student success. Engaging the community.

Donate at http://grinnellsf.org The Grinnell-Newburg School Foundation has non-profit 501c-3 status as an affiliate of Greater Poweshiek Community Foundation. The GNSF Board and its supporters recognize that community support and engagement along with sufficient resources are key to the success of public education. The Foundation raises and allocates funds for projects beyond those supported by re

gular school sources. The additional funding helps fill the gap that exists between the programs teachers would like to implement to improve student achievement and those available to them through district funding. In addition, the School Foundation is striving to build a strong Endowment Fund for Grinnell-Newburg Schools. This fund will ensure continuation of successful programs and allot funds for new research-based initiatives in order to assist the District's efforts to provide high quality public education to ALL students.

๐Ÿ“ Why It Matters: New Educator Grants

Starting a new classroom is exciting โ€” and expensive. Since 2022, GNSF has welcomed brand-new educators in the Grinnell-Newburg School District with a $200 grant to help stock their classroom, no strings attached. A simple application goes out to each brand-new educator starting their career in the Grinnell schools, and they choose gift cards from Amazon, Target, or Walmart to get exactly what their students need.

This year, we welcomed a record number of new educators to our district. To each of you: we see you, we're rooting for you, and we're so glad you're here.

Your gift to the Annual Campaign helps us say "welcome" the right way โ€” with real support from day one. Click this link to donate!
