The Douglas County Educational Foundation

The Douglas County Educational Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit which works with corporations and organizations to develop private resources to enrich education within Douglas County schools for the fulfillment of lifelong learning experiences of our students, citizens and community.
The Foundation achieves this mission by directing support where appropriate toward the following objectives:
