Welcome!
Dear Sheffield Community,
The Sheffield-Sheffield Lake City Schools Endowment Fund was created to support graduating seniors with scholarship opportuntities for post-secondary education, as well as, grants for educators to provide students with innovative and experimental classroom projects and programs. Monies that are received to support these opportunities are invested, remain local, and are used to benefit students and their education.
The Sheffield-Sheffield Lake City School Endowment Committee was founded in 1991 and continues to have a huge impact on students and teachers. Last year alone, the endowment provided over $60,000 for both student scholarships and educator grants. This is possible because of our generous staff and community contributions. Thank you for your continued support!
The Endowment Committee will be awarding grants this year on an ongoing basis and will be considered at the next scheduled Endowment Committee meeting after submission.
One grant may be submitted at a time. Prior approved grants must be completed before any additional grants will be considered.
Gifts to the Foundation can take the form of:
| Outright Gifts | Deferred Gifts | Memorial Gifts | Incremental Gifts | Specified Gift |
| Cash or long-term appreciated securities | Bequests, charitable remainder trusts, gift annuities, life insurance policies | Funds or assets in memory of a deceased relative, friend or educator. | Gifts made in stages, planned in advance as to amount and timing. | Resources to serve specified subject areas or extra-curricular programs for the school and/or community (performers, lecturers, scholars). |
Donations may be made to support the following categories:
General- Provides general enrichment programs and activities in the classrooms.
Arts-Provides enrichment programs and activities for music & art classrooms.
Scholarships- Provides financial assistance for graduating seniors for studies beyond high school.
