Dayton Public Schools Foundation


Every student in DPS has the potential to learn, grow, and develop the skills and confidence needed to build a successful future. Their talents, ideas, and contributions are also essential to building a stronger, more vibrant Dayton community.

The Dayton Public Schools Foundation works to connect students with the resources and opportunities that help them thrive. By encouraging community support through financial contributions, volunteering, and meaningful partnerships, we help enrich educational experiences while inspiring students to become active, engaged members of their community.

When our community invests in its students, everyone benefits. The Foundation is committed to strengthening that connection, working collaboratively with district leadership, educators, and community partners to support student success and a brighter future for Dayton.
