SWCS Educational Foundation

04/09/2026

Our partners with the SWCS Educational Foundation are actively recruiting additional volunteers to join their 2026 Board of Trustees!

Founded in 1986, the SWCSEF partners with community and corporate supporters to encourage student achievement, advancement and innovative school programs across the district. Since its inception, SWCSEF has awarded more than $1.5 million in scholarships to graduating seniors and provided more than $400,000 in grants to support creative and impactful classroom initiatives.

The Foundation is governed by a working, all-volunteer Board of Trustees. Board members attend monthly meetings and actively serve on committees supporting development and marketing, scholarships and grants, nominating and governance, or finance. Trustees also assist with key annual fundraising events, including the Honors Concert, Annual Fundraiser and Drive Forward Golf Outing.

Community members who are passionate about supporting students and strengthening educational opportunities in South Western City Schools are encouraged to apply. All applications will be reviewed by the Foundation’s Nominating and Governance Committee.

In advance of Giving Tuesday - as we launch our Annual Campaign this year - we hope that we can once again count on our community's commitment to funding teacher grants for innovative educational projects and scholarships for district students who will graduate in 2026 and embark on post-secondary education.

The SWCS Educational Foundation has awarded more than $1.5 million in scholarships to graduating seniors and over $400,000 to fund classroom grants since the Foundation's inception. This ability to impact education in our community is possible because of the longstanding support of people and businesses just like you.
