The Cannon Falls Education Foundation budget for funding programs is based on the fund-raising efforts from the previous year. For the 2019-2020 school year, our budget for creative and innovative projects is $83,000. We have already contributed $50,000 as part of a 3 year commitment to the school district for classroom upgrades, but there is still money left over due to amazing fundraising and community contributions throughout the year. $33,000 is the remaining balance we have in our budget for projects and programs to be awarded
In addition to the budgeted programs, the Cannon Falls Education Foundation accepts directed donations. We're approached by community members, organizations, and businesses with a donation for a specific project. When these projects meet our criteria of providing creative and innovative experiences for students in the Cannon Falls School District and have support from the school staff, the donations are accepted and used to fund the project.
