Philanthropy

Minot Public School Foundation Classroom Innovation Grant
The Minot Public School Foundation (MPSF) is a 501(c)(3) organization founded in 1993. Its mission is to engage the entire community in supporting progress and excellence in the Minot Public School District. The MPSF continues to unite its community and alumni network to support and prioritize educational experiences, foster innovative learning, and ensure the success of every Minot Public Schools student.
One of the MPSF programs supporting this vision is the Classroom Innovation Grant. These grants provide resources for innovative projects not typically funded by district, state, or federal funds. They allow Minot Public School teachers to pilot new ideas or enhance existing programs, fostering student engagement and achievement.
Research shows that an inspiring teacher is the most important school-related factor influencing student achievement. Help us give educators a chance to pilot a new idea or to supplement something inspiring that they are already doing in the classroom. Donate online today! For tracking purposes, please add “NDASFAA” in the comment box on the donation page. Cash or check will also be accepted at the conference.
