Who We Are

Mission & History

The Cherry Creek Schools Foundation is dedicated to:

Impacting ALL of our students

Investing in innovation in the classrooms

Providing opportunities for EVERY student to achieve to the best of his or her abilities 

The Cherry Creek Schools Foundation, founded in 1993 as a 501c (3) Non-Profit, connects our community to the Cherry Creek School District by identifying resources and partnerships that result in IMPACT through INNOVATIVE programs and meaningful educational OPPORTUNITIES for all students and educators.  Since its inception, CCSF has awarded over 1,000 Educator Initiative Grants that fund the work of classroom teachers who ensure that all of our students are prepared for an ever-changing world.  The Foundation has raised more than $8.5 million for groundbreaking educational programs that have touched all of our schools and students.  From elementary school literacy programs, to middle school engineering programs, to high school ethics programs, the Foundation financially backs ideas that get results across all curriculums and grade levels. 

The Foundation relies on you and continues to build long-term relationships with you as business leaders and individuals who know that investing in our students is important for our future. CCSF’s funding affects all students within the district by supporting the growth and diversity of our community and embracing students’ broad range of multicultural and socio-economic needs. The Cherry Creek Schools Foundation supports the mission of the Cherry Creek School District: To inspire every student to think, to learn, to achieve and to care.

IT ALL ADDS UP!
