Investing in Community Education
The Elmbrook Education Foundation supports the students at all 11 of the District's public schools through its Continuing Education Scholarship, Innovation Grant and Super Grant Programs. In addition, the Foundation has established an endowment held by the Waukesha County Community Foundation to provide a source of permanent support for Foundation programs.

EEF Establishes WCCF Endowment in Honor of 50th Anniversary!
The Elmbrook Education Foundation (EEF) recently established an endowment fund at the Waukesha County Community Foundation (WCCF) in honor of its 50th Anniversary. Many of the EEF’s sponsors, graduates and their families continue to reside in Waukesha County making the establishment of an endowment within the WCCF an appropriate way to recognize the sense of community that has built the Foundation into what it is today.
The EEF’s fundraising campaign is designed to meet the needs of donors and their families through a variety of sponsorship, bequest and trust options. Donors that have a specific cause they wish to support also have the opportunity to set up donor directed funds in their name. The EEF extends a special expression of gratitude to the caring individuals and families who have become annual sponsors of the Foundation and/or have remembered the EEF in retirement plan designations, wills or estate plans.
The new Elmbrook Education Foundation Fund at the WCCF is intended to provide long-term support for EEF programs that directly support innovative instructional strategies, enriching educational experiences, and a value for continuing education across the Elmbrook School District. Integrating an endowment program into fundraising efforts provides another opportunity for donors to support the students of the Elmbrook School District who will become future employees, business owners, and community servants within Waukesha County.
