Get Involved

To ensure the success of the programs and projects of the Manatee Education Foundation, we need your support. To help, you can choose from one or more of the following investment options. Financial contributions in any amount will be gratefully accepted.

Support Education Specialty License Plate
When you buy or renew the Support Education License Plate in Manatee County, you are making an annual $20 donation to the Manatee Education Foundation. You are also showcasing your support for our schools! Visit any Tax Collector's office or online at www.taxcollector.com

Provide In-Kind Services
Help us put even more of our revenues into the classroom by providing meeting space, catering, marketing, entertainment or other in-kind services. Gift certificates or retail goods are also valuable in-kind donations that can be used as incentives for students and teachers or as items in a fundraising auction.

Fund A Classroom Grant
Any size gift can help us fund a Classroom Grant. These grants help teachers provide students with unique learning experiences not available through the limited school budget. You may send us your donation and we can match it with a student project.

Make an Endowed Gift: Taxwise Giving
Help us build a permanent fund to support our work. The Manatee Education Foundation, Inc. is a 501(c)3 public charity. Therefore, gifts to the Manatee Edcuation Foundation are fully tax deductible. Funds from our endowment are invested, generate on-going revenue, and help ensure the long-term financial stability of the Manatee Education Foundation. Our endowment also includes opportunities to establish a fund for yourself, or as a memorial to someone special.

or...VOLUNTEER!
