Welcome to the APS Education Foundation! We’re glad you stopped by.
Let us show you around the place.
The Foundation is a 501 (c)(3) that raises private support and public awareness about the good things going on at Albuquerque Public Schools. We’ve got nearly 90,000 students in APS, and our mission is to help them graduate with a well-rounded, top-notch education that creates a lifetime love of learning.
Toward that end, the Foundation has created a variety of initiatives that will supplement four major programs in need of your help: Fine Arts, Middle/High School Activities, Literacy and Science/Technology/Engineering/Math. The most public of these efforts is our Horizon Campaign, which has raised about $700,000 in cash, in-kind donations and pledges in less than two years and began reaching classrooms in the fall of 2010.
Please feel free to take a look around our Web site. You’ll get to know more about the Foundation, our terrific board of directors, our dedicated staff. But mostly, we hope you’ll get to know the promise and potential of the kids in Albuquerque. They’re terrific. They deserve the best.
Our goal – with your help – is to make sure they get it.
Thanks for coming by, and make yourself at home.
