Alumni Foundation

OUR MISSION…

“Forging a partnership among our schools, community, and alumni.”

Connecting Community:

Our students face many challenges today as they prepare for their futures. College and career readiness is essential to the future of our students and the community. To accomplish our mission, we encourage you to join us in support of our efforts to help Minden students shape their lives in becoming assets to the communities in which they live.

Our Foundation Goals:

* To fund projects and scholarships above and beyond the scope of normal school needs and operations not provided by other resources.

* To support excellence in education throughout Minden Public Schools.

* To promote and support worthy educational needs of the students, teachers, and educational community through donations, gifts, and grants.

* To inform alumni and friends of the Minden Public Schools Foundation’s current activities and events throughout our district.

* To foster enthusiasm in the classroom and the joy of learning.

“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” ~
