Foundation for Daviess County Public Schools

The highest quality education possible is the single best investment we can make in our children and teachers.

The Foundation for Daviess County Public Schools exists to secure and allocate resources that enhance, enrich, and support educational excellence across our district. Through strategic partnerships, alumni engagement, and community collaboration, we work to empower educators, inspire students, and create innovative learning opportunities that elevate public education.

Our vision is a thriving, inclusive educational community where every student has the tools and support to reach their full potential. Guided by our commitment to excellence, equity, innovation, and integrity, we are proud to champion programs and initiatives that make a lasting difference.

Recently, the Foundation has helped fund both large and small-scale district needs. A small sampling of recent projects includes:

for two vision machines that will allow for vision screening for every pre-school and elementary student in the district in partnership with local eye care professionals and the Lion’s Club
