Supporting World Class Education

The Southeast Polk Education Foundation (SEPEF) is a nonprofit foundation that will raise funds for curricular enrichment, programs, scholarships, and projects outside the normal funding stream of the district, thus providing enrichment opportunities that would otherwise not be available.

Established in 2014 as an independently governed not-for-profit 501 (c) (3) organization, the mission of the Southeast Polk Education Foundation (SEPEF) is to engage and focus local, regional, and national support to enhance opportunities for Southeast Polk students, PK through 12th grade. The foundation works with the district to develop and implement the securing of funds to support district initiatives. The Southeast Polk Education Foundation is the only funding organization with the unique mission of supporting Southeast Polk Schools. Our efforts involve corporations, foundations, civic organizations, professional associations, school alumni, and other concerned individuals. We will assist private donors in making informed decisions that will enhance educational opportunities for Southeast Polk students.
