ANNUAL GIVING CAMPAIGN

The Annual Giving Campaign, a community-wide direct mail effort, is the Foundation’s largest fund-raiser, generating nearly 50% of total monies raised.  The Foundation has conducted an Annual Giving Campaign via mail each fall for the past twelve years. 

The support of our financial donors including individuals, family foundations, community members and businesses along with corporate matching gifts is sincerely appreciated

The 2010-2011 Campaign generated nearly $200,000.

 

TARTAN BALL      

The Tartan Ball is a community-wide event that provides an opportunity for all members from the Mequon-Thiensville community to join together to celebrate our exemplary schools.

QUOTES

It is very important that teachers have an opportunity to grow and develop professionally. In these difficult financial times in our district, the fact that the MTEF is willing to donate money to each school for the purpose of staff development is deeply appreciated.”-MTSD Principal

 

I can’t imagine a more important contribution to our children’s future than a long-term commitment to MTEF. All of us must become more accountable for the quality and well-being of our schools in order to preserve our educational excellence for generations to come.” – MTEF supporter
