Since 1990, the Douglas County Educational Foundation (DCEF) has been developing resources to enrich educational programs within Douglas County schools, for the fulfillment of lifelong learning experiences for students, citizens and the Douglas County community. Our organization is comprised of volunteers whose commitment of time and resources has contributed $2 million to educational programs and projects!
Raffle tickets are now available for $75 each and may be purchased by visiting the website,
www.AWorthyInvestment.com
or by calling the Foundation at 303-387-0505. Your investment supports the Bridge Program, World
Language Program and Technology in the Classrooms. The goal of the home raffle is to raise $750,000 to support these worthy Douglas County School District programs. The Foundation is looking for help with special fundraising events such as our Golf Tournament, the Apple Awards Dinner, Greg & Steve Children's Concerts, and more! Clerical help with data entry, mailings and the newsletter is also needed. Students are very welcome to volunteer for the Foundation. The Douglas County Educational Foundation (DCEF) is proud to announce a fundraising opportunity to Invest in Our Future by raffling a home. This brilliantly built 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath Townhome worth over $235,000 is located in Parker, Colorado at Highlands at Stonegate.
