Holiday Annual Giving Campaign 2024/2025

An education from the Milton Public Schools is the foundation for excellence for all our students. With your support over the past 30 years, the Milton Foundation for Education (MFE) has helped spark innovation and invigorate the learning experience for our students. Last year, generous supporters like you funded over $100,000 for teacher grants, district-wide initiatives, and student scholarships, which adds to the over $4,000,000 that MFE has distributed to date. These funds have already impacted over 55,000 students in all six Milton Public Schools, and your contributions are instrumental in this success! As you consider a donation this year, we have a few exciting opportunities and announcements:

1. This year, we are offering a special incentive for your generosity. For every $100 you donate, you will be entered to win 4 tickets on the 50 yard line to the Patriots versus LA Chargers game in Foxboro on December 29th. The more you donate, the more chances you have to win. The drawing will be held on Sunday, December 22, and the winner will be notified by email and/or text.

2. One of our immediate goals is to fulfill a district-wide grant request to replace outdated collections of geography books, a need brought to our attention by librarians, teachers, and parents. If every household considered a gift of $75 or more, we could satisfy this urgent need. 

3. On December 18th, you can help support grants like this by participating in our “Holiday Night: Parents Night Off” at Cunningham Hall. For more information on the event visit our website: www.miltonfoundation.org

Finally, we - like many folks in Milton - are still processing the sudden passing of our dear friend and fellow Board member, Kate Middleton. A career educator, Kate was passionate about supporting and retaining Milton's excellent teachers. As such, we will be honoring Kate's legacy with a new recognition to complement our Teachers of the Year: the Kate Middleton Rookie of the Year Award. Please Save the Date for our annual Celebration for Education on May 3rd, when we will honor Kate and recognize our teachers. 

We are deeply grateful for your partnership and generosity, which make a significant difference in the lives of our students. We wish you and your family a very happy holiday season!
