Farewell from the R.O.S.E. Foundation:
After much thoughtful consideration, we are announcing the official dissolution of the R.O.S.E. Foundation. This decision was not made lightly, but after careful evaluation—and in light of growing challenges in engaging schools in the way we envisioned—we believe it is the right time to bring our work to a close.
Thanks to the incredible dedication of our volunteers and board members, we’ve made meaningful impact along the way. Your donations helped fund mini-grants that directly recognized, appreciated, valued, and encouraged educators and school staff.
As part of our responsible and transparent closing process, all remaining funds will be used in alignment with our original mission. We’re proud to share that the final balance will go toward one last round of recognition efforts to celebrate school staff in a meaningful and lasting way.
While the R.O.S.E. Foundation is coming to a close, we believe the heart of this work can and should live on. If anyone is interested in continuing this mission in the future, we would be happy to share our materials, experience, and insights to help them start it back up. Please don’t hesitate to reach out—this remains an open opportunity.
It has been an honor to serve our community through this foundation. Though the R.O.S.E. Foundation is closing, the spirit of appreciation and excellence we sought to foster will continue to live on in the hearts of those we’ve touched.
From the bottom of our hearts—thank you. 💛
