Business Summary:

The Greene Education Foundation (GEF) is an independent, nonprofit 501(c)3 organization dedicated to supporting public education in Greene County. Our mission is to further enrich the educational experience of the children and educators of Greene County schools.

GEF provides some of the additional resources needed to facilitate and supplement quality educational programs by awarding annual creative instructional grants to Greene County schoolteachers. The foundation also awards annual scholarships to graduating William Monroe High School seniors pursuing higher education. GEF is currently supporting much-needed improvements to the nearly 25-year-old Raymond C. Dingledine III Performing Arts Center at WMHS to support music and the arts in our schools.

By establishing the Greene Education Foundation, we hope to encourage community investment in our public schools. We envision this foundation as a partnership between the community, businesses, school personnel, and parents, to mutually support the best learning environment and opportunities possible for our county's children, now and in the future. Through this foundation we will attempt to meet the challenges our county school district faces with its growing enrollment and limited funding.
