DONATE

The Excellence in Education Foundation works alongside the Tahoe Truckee Unified School District to enhance students’ learning experiences.

Sometimes there just isn’t enough public funding to support the optimum curriculum. This nonprofit organization raises money for grants and resources to support the teachers and kids within the district’s 12 schools across 720 miles. 

The foundation receives donations through its Dining for Schools cards (which give its holders half-off entrees at more than 40 restaurants in the North Lake Tahoe and Truckee area) and its Golfing for Schools/Skiing for Schools cards that give residents discounts at local ski resorts and golf courses. The money it accrues then supports the Tahoe Truckee Reads program, recognizing local teachers through its awards program, and its grant funding.

The foundation awards grants to teachers in the Tahoe Truckee Unified School District through a meticulous application process, following up with the school district to support key initiatives and educational structures that make an impact on student learning.
