Testimonials

"When the community donates to the Cherry Creek Schools Foundation, they are providing opportunities for our students to succeed by offering grants and funding to teachers and schools to support in areas of literacy, internet access, special projects, hands-on resources, and more. Cherry Creek Schools Foundation is an integral partner for our school & community engagement!" - Sybil Booker, Assistant Principal at Overland High School

"When COVID first started, I found myself in a rough spot when I had to run from my abusive husband. I was able to get help through the foundation and was able to get into a hotel. I was given some gift cards that allowed me to feed my two boys. I was also given a hot spot so that the boys could do their school work. Without the funds for food and the hotel, my kids and I would have been forced to live in my car. Today, I am happy to say that I have found stable housing, and my boys and I are very thankful! - Violette, CCSD Parent

"The foundation serves to not only strengthen our schools but to also strengthen our community. I give to the foundation because I want to support the needs of all kids and create opportunities for our teachers to innovate in the classroom and to reimagine the learning journey for their students." - Valencia Culbreath,  CCSD Parent & CCSF Board Member

"It has been a struggle for my kiddos with accessing the internet. We are very grateful to be able to have gotten one of these internet hotspots thanks to the Foundation."
- CCSD Parent
