Cape Coral Community Foundation

About Foundation Since its inception in 1986 the mission of the Foundation has been to enhance the quality of publiceducation in Lee County by increasing community involvement in, and support for, Lee County public schools. Twenty-two years ago, a diverse group of local business and community leaders created the Foundation. These concerned individuals realized that the cornerstone of an economically strong community was a quality public education system. The purpose of every initiative of The Foundation for Lee County Public Schools, Inc is to create and enhance opportunities for our public school students and teachers. Our goals are accomplished by providing many distinctive programs. In-school programs are expanded with additional resources such as new titles being added to the Jim and Ellie Newton Children's Literature Center. Students are given unique learning opportunities through programs such as Classroom Grants, the and Art Speak. Teachers are recognized for their excellence in teaching through the Golden Apple Teacher Recognition Program' and encouraged to continue to implement best practices in their classrooms through quality training offered at the Collegium for the Advancement of Education. Over the past 22 years, more than $27 million dollars has been invested through The Foundation to enhance and enrich the public school experience for our teachers and students.
