The Joplin Schools Foundation believes the greatest legacy for future generations is a permanent fund designated solely for the purpose of exemplary public education in our community. By supporting the Foundation with your gifts, you place your trust in the value of excellence in education now and in the future.
Endowed funds are one of the most important sources of support for education today. Operating like an investment account for the school district, funds are invested as capital, rather than used as cash for immediate needs. An endowment gift may be made in many forms including stock, life insurance, or real estate. Gifts will be invested and used each year for the purpose designated by the donor. An endowment gift is an excellent opportunity to build a legacy and support education.
