Union Schools Foundation: Leaving a Legacy

By Katherine Ollendieck, President, Union Community Schools Foundation

   There is an exciting new project underway in our communities, one that I feel passionately about- The Union Community Schools Foundation. The UCSF is a 501C3 non profit organization whose mission is to support the Union Community Schools vision of "Education to meet tomorrow's challenges."
   The Foundation will accomplish this mission by providing financial support to enhance and enrich the experiences of students for generations to come, affording an opportunity for donors who want to leave a lasting legacy, and by involving the community in assuring quality programs, services and facilities for the leaders and workers of tomorrow.

   I believe enthusiasm is contagious and I am excited about the high caliber of people from our communities and school district who have agreed to play a role in establishing and promoting the Foundation. My fellow board members are a diverse and thoughtful group of people who are committed to our school district. In the short time I have served as the Foundation's President, they have shared many fascinating facts with me about our school district and its accomplishments over the years. I know if we continue to work hard, we will look back at the time and energy put into this important campaign and be proud of the role we played in protecti
   On November 10, 2007, I hope you will join us at the Union High School Gym and Auditorium for an evening of entertainment, Foundation program, silent and live auctions and decadent desserts. This celebration of excellence is an opportunity to help support this important kick-off of the Union Community Schools Foundation endowment!

   We have secured the necessary donations to host the evening so that all proceeds will go entirely to the endowment. What that means is the price of your ticket and the support you give that evening will only keep growing and making a difference for years to come.
   Leaving A Legacy event tickets can be purchased from a Foundation board member or at each of the school offices in both Dysart and La Porte City. The cost of an event ticket is $20 per person. I hope you will join us on November 10th or find a way to support this important endeavor for our students, the future of our communities.

   The Union Community Schools Foundation is many things to me, a chance to give back, an opportunity to do something for our school district, a challenge I am excited to take on. I strongly encourage you to join us in our quest to build awareness and foster support for the endowment of our community's future. I invite anyone interested in making a lasting gift to the Foundation to contact me. I would welcome the chance to visit with you about the many ways a gift to the Foundation makes a life-long difference for our students. You may reach me at 319-476-2797 or dkollendieck@netins.net.
