About

The Waterloo Schools Foundation (WSF) is a nonprofit organization that aims to fund, inspire, and promote educational opportunities for the 11,000+ students and staff in the Waterloo Community School District (WCSD). Our vision is to be a long-term catalyst for educational excellence and pride in the Waterloo Schools. We strive to provide financial support for innovative educational projects that go beyond what tax dollars can provide. 

In the past 15 years, we have invested and pledged over 3 million dollars into the WCSD. Our main funding streams include the following: 

Young Scholars Grants - student funding to pursue academic interests or experiences

Innovative Learning Grants - outcome based teacher grants to bring unique learning to or beyond the classroom

District Initiatives - large scale projects with the possibility to impact learning district-wide led by the WCSD's strategic plan
