LIKE A GOOD NEIGHBOR!
Thank you to State Farm and Carmen Rivera for your generous donation supporting Grace Miller Elementary. When local State Farm agent Carmen Rivera learned that students at Grace Miller Elementary were in need of Chromebooks for at-home learning, she jumped into action!
She personally donated $540 and her office (Carmen Rivera State Farm) also donated $540 to the Foundation. State Farm corporate matched her donation with an additional $540.
In total, she raised $1,620 to purchase six Chromebooks for Grace Miller Elementary.
Upon hearing of Carmen's generosity, Ms. Debbie Diaz-Arnold and her husband donated $1,000 to purchase four more Chromebooks!

OTHER FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES
My First Book Club -Designed for at-risk preschool students to improve literacy, develop a love of reading and promote peer interaction, our goal is to increase participation to 225 students by including Head Start. Each month students receive a new book for classroom and at home reading. Teachers set goals for individual reading skills and read together in a group setting. Students receive book bins to take home to build their first home library. For an annual donation, you can give a child a new book every month, including a Holiday gift and two books for the summer. School Lunch Debt - During the 2020 quarantine, the Fauquier County Public Schools nutrition team will continue to make sure that children are fed. Your donation will help continue their mission and will directly impact families in need.
Educator Grants - For 30 years the Foundation has provided grants to dedicated Fauquier County public school teachers, educators and administrators to enable them to participate in high-quality professional development that impacts their classroom teaching. These funds support participation in experiences such as conferences, seminars, research, cultural programs and summer institutes. These grants cover registration fees, travel, course materials and other related costs. For many teachers, they could not participate without this financial support.
STEM Summer Camps - Even though camps are cancelled for 2020, we are proud to support summer camps for students in Fauquier County Public Schools. It is through donations and grants that we are able to keep these camps affordable for families, offer scholarships, provide transportation, and purchase additional materials to keep students engaged and challenged.
