MISSION

The mission of the organization is to enhance Olentangy School’s educational experience. 

HISTORY

The Olentangy Education Foundation was founded in 1990 as a non-profit, independent organization.  It’s original name, Olentangy Pride Foundation, was changed to the Olentangy Education Foundation in 2004.

The Foundation collects charitable contributions from donors, and partners with our school district to support and fund enhanced educational experiences for all students.     

OEF’s initiatives are focused on providing staff grants for innovative programs and learning opportunities for which tax dollars are not available, and recognizing outstanding staff members.

As OEF looks toward the future, the ultimate goal is to increase contributions so the Foundation can reach endowed status and expand the benefits it provides to our schools. We hope you will consider exploring and supporting the opportunities and events that OEF offers.

The Olentangy Education Foundation’s primary fundraising events each year include:

  • Annual Community Event (ZOOlentangy)

  • Staff Shout-Out Program

  • Grant Givers
