The Student Enrichment Fund supports programs that supplement the classroom learning experience through field trips, cultural experiences, and participation in clubs, fine arts, and co-curricular activities. In addition, the Fund provides emergency assistance support for children in need of basic necessities such as glasses, shoes, coats, and gloves.
“Earlier this year, a family with five small children in our school, very clearly needed new shoes. They were either too small, too big, or worn through from being passed down.
Because of generous donors, the Council Bluffs Schools Foundation stepped in immediately and we were able to purchase new shoes for all of the kids.”

“Because of your support, the 5th graders at College View received a grant to attend School of the Wild at Hitchcock Nature Center. The immersion of our students into outdoor learning about our own fragile ecosystem provided insights into the real-world applications of science in a way that no classroom experience could hope to replicate. We could never have provided these memorable experiences without your generous support.”
-Jordan Preson, College View Elementary
