iGIVE Program

Holiday Gifts that Give Back
It's FREE for you, it's FREE for us!

This holiday season, purchase a gift that means an automatic donation to MTEF!  When you shop at any of over 800 participating online stores through iGive, a portion of each purchase comes back to us in the form of a donation check.

It's free for you, free for us, and you pay the same (or less!) than you would be going directly to the store.  Shopping online means no wasted gas and no more standing in long lines and the mall.  And to all you smart shoppers: don't miss iGive's treasure-trove of coupons, sales and free shipping.

Save money, save time, and purchase gifts that give twice.

MISSION
The Mission of the MTEF is to develop community-wide private financial support for the Mequon-Thiensville School District and through grants, to help continued excellence in education.

VISION
The MTEF's vision is to be the leading organization for providing private financial support for the Mequon-Thiensville School District.  MTEF works with other district and community organizations to ensure that funds are raised efficiently and effectively and are made available to the district in a manner that addresses the significant needs of the Mequon-Thiensville School District.

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
The Foundation is committed to helping address the budgetary shortfalls and to ensuring that the Mequon-Thiensville School District advances in technology, curriculum and personnel.

Declining enrollments coupled with the unfavorable state funding formula make this a fiscally challenging time for the Mequon-Thiensville School District.  Creation of strong private-public partnerships  empowers supporters of public education to partner together to make a difference as we prepare our students for the 21st century global world.

GOALS

  • To achieve a distinct, beneficial and clearly understood role in the community.

  • To collaborate with school district personnel and other school support groups to indentify ways to maintain the educational excellence our children deserve.

  • To seek and support creative ways to ensure the school district advances in technology, curriculum and personnel.

  • To expand our parent, staff and community donor base.

ABOUT THE FOUNDATION

The MTEF was incorporated in 1998 as a non-profit organization committed to advancing educational excellence.  The Foundation is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors which operates independently yet in conjunction with the Mequon-Thiensville School District (MTSD) and the Board of Education.

The MTEF benefits all six schools in the MTSD consisting of Donges Bay Elementary School, Oriole Lane Elementary School, Wilson Elementary School, Lake Shore Middle School, Steffen Middle School and Homestead High School.
