5th Quarter EDUCATION "Fun"draiser

Each fall, the Fruitport Education Foundation holds its 5th Quarter Education "FUN"draiser which benefits the students of Fruitport Community Schools. The "Fun"draiser is an annual event with proceeds directed back to our students and classrooms. This event would not be possible without the strong support of the Trojan Nation - staff, parents, alumni, community members, local businesses, vendors and supporters of FCS. Thank you all!

​We are proud of the support we've provided over the years, but we know there is more work to be done. The year 2020, however, brings special fundraising challenges as our annual fundraising event has been canceled due to Covid-19 concerns. As our district and community navigates this pandemic, we know that students and teachers will need the FEF more than ever before. And with the new challenges this school year brings, we expect an even higher call on grant funds. This is our mission...to help fill the gaps for our students and staff. But we can not do it alone.

We are seeking sponsors to help us achieve our mission. If you or your business are in a position to donate, your monetary gift will help us continue to provide mini grants that enrich academic programs, and scholarship opportunities for our students. Click on the link below for a list of available “sponsorship levels” showing how your gifts will impact student learning. Every gift matters and will help us continue to meet the educational needs of students in our ever-changing world.
