Gifts of Appreciation….

Christmas is a great time to recognize those special people – teachers, coaches, counselors, bus drivers, and other staff members who are a positive influence in your child’s life and school experience. One way to show your appreciation is by making a donation in their name to the Hudsonville Education Foundation. It’s a gift that will continue to give. When a donation is made to the Foundation, the name of the honoree will be posted in each building and notification of your donation will be sent to them.

The Hudsonville Education Foundation is a non-profit, tax-exempt organization that was founded to enrich and enhance education in Hudsonville Public Schools by funding projects and programs that will directly impact Hudsonville students. The HEF is managed by The Community Foundation of the Holland/Zeeland Area.

Your donation will not only honor a staff member but will help fund future grants that will directly impact Hudsonville students. See the attached flyer here for the form to be filled out with your donation.Gifts of Appr-Dec2015
