Endowed Programs
Wondering what an endowment is and how it can help fund public education? Click here.
Send suggestions for programs you would like to see endowed to suggestions@caff-vbps.org, and we will post it here. We want to be sure that the needs and concerns of community, alumni, and friends of the district are heard, so we will be working continuously to gather feedback, as well as financial support for these ideas. Once there are funds donated towards this program, we will include live updates on the status of the fund. As we implement our membership system, you will be able to login, track your own contributions, and see how your gift has grown over time.
Endowed Programs
Currently, we have two sub-funds:
Advantage Van Buren
Individual Scholarship Program (details forthcoming!)
The General Fund
The general fund supports everything.
Anything of term or scope too small to establish its own sub-fund draws from this fund, and new sub-funds turn to this fund for seed money.
This fund keeps our servers up and prints our flyers, and is also used to build up funds for any new projects — ranging from mini-grants to new computer labs.
