e known as the Geneseo Endowment for Excellence in Education A board of directors was selected from the steering committee, and the first meeting was held August 16, 1991. After months of thoughtful planning a public fund drive was launched on November 16th, 1991, with a kick-off breakfast at The Deck. A direct mail brochure was mailed to all residents in District #228 explaining the purpose and goals of the endowment. GEEE was formed to provide a means for all citizens to contribute to the continuation and expansion of quality educational opportunities in School District #228. In 2015, in order to make the name user friendly, the Board of Directors chose to simplify the name to the Geneseo Education Foundation.
