Mission
In a year where many foundations experienced unprecedented financial challenges the RE-1 Valley Foundation believed it was essential to continue to support the District, and funded strategic initiatives and projects at near record levels.
For the 2009-2010 FY the Foundation provide more than $10,000 to the students and staff in the RE-1 Valley School District.
