Who We Are

The Sandburg Foundation is a non-profit foundation dedicated to providing additional financial support and programs to Sandburg Elementary School. Our mission is to provide a well-rounded educational experience for our students by raising funds to improve school site facilities and provide academic enrichment opportunities. A listing of the Board Members and their responsibilities can be found here.

What We Do

We raise money to give to the school in support of academic excellence and school enhancement. The Foundation hosts programs throughout the school year to allow our school to earn money. The Foundation is not in competition with the PTA. In fact, it was formed to allow us access to additional unrestricted funds to assist our school. By charter, the PTA is limited to fund-raising in order to support its own programs.

2012-2013 Fundraising Goals

Each year, the Board Members of the Sandburg Foundation meet with Principal Martin and teacher representatives to determine how best to meet the needs of Sandburg Elementary students through the Foundation's annual fundraising efforts. Parents and members of the community are invited to attend monthly Board meetings to discuss this year's goals and strategies for providing enrichment programs for our students.

Shopping Card Program

Earn money for our school by buying shopping cards to the local establishments you normally shop at and use the cards instead of cash to make your purchases. Orders will be due the 15th of every month. You can pick up your shopping cards at the front of the school, before or after school, the 1st Monday and Tuesday of every month.

Visit the Shopping Card page for more information and to see a list of participating businesses.
