The TCSD Foundation is a tax-exempt not-for-profit
corporation located in Trumansburg,
NY organized in 2006 and operated
by committed volunteers. Our mission is to
·
Enhance pre-K through 12 educational and extracurricular
opportunities in the district
·
Forge partnerships with friends of the Trumansburg Central
School District
·
Raise funds and award grants to foster personal growth and
encourage excellence
Our efforts to date have resulted in tangible benefits
in the form of grant awards exceeding $100,000 that have directly benefited Trumansburg Central School District
students. In 2012, we awarded total grants exceeding $19,500 which allowed for
the purchase of new technology and equipment, educational field trips and guest
speakers, in addition to funding the Trumansburg Kids Explore & Discover (TKED) program.
The TKED program takes all Pre-Kindergarten through 6th grade students to a
Discovery Trail site for a curriculum-based learning experience.
We have been working hard to make a difference in the
education and individual development of the students in the Trumansburg Central
School District. We thank
our many generous supporters: parents, business partners, the Trumansburg Central
School District, and
community partners.
Please take some time to browse our site and find out
more about who we are and what we do. We welcome your input and hope that you
will consider participating in our mission to better the education and the
lives of the young people of our community.

sustain the Trumansburg

Hello Steven.
I've compiled a short list of
some Boston-area schools that we've awarded grants to over the years. The
complete list is quite extensive, but I've included a mixed bag below when it
comes to the year each award was given. This way, if you contact these schools,
you can inquire about the progression of their garden programs since receiving
the award.
