622 Education Foundation

How to Help

The 622 Education Foundation is a volunteer-based organization, assisted by one part-time administrative assistant. Because of the high-energy, community-minded volunteers who comprise our Board of Directors, we are able to direct almost all of our financial resources directly into our programs.

Community individuals and businesses have rallied behind the Foundation. They know that we are determined to give students every opportunity possible to succeed. Financial support from families, organizations, businesses, are the backbone of the 622 Education Foundation. There are many ways to help, with your tax-deductible donations and your generous volunteer hours. Listed below are some of the many ways you can participate.
