Support Wilson Excellence! Support Our Students! Support WEF!

OUR MISSION The Wilson Education Foundation (WEF) positively impacts students’ lives by supporting the Wilson School District in three areas: Student Experience, Teaching Excellence, and Community Engagement. We provide our students with a differentiated education over and above what could be paid for with our tax base alone.

WHO WE ARE

The WEF helps to ensure a sustainable and differentiated Wilson educational experience. The money the WEF raises is used to support and assist the needs of students, teachers, and community. We are always working with our District leadership to finds ways to differentiate the educational opportunities that our students receive at every level of their Wilson education.

Supported our nationally recognized I-STEM program through EITC funds raised.	2018	Partnered with Wilson School District to fund and facilitate the Bulldog Summer Blast Reading Program.
Administered more than $23,000 in scholarships for graduating seniors.	Through the Venture Grant Program, an additional $7,000+ was given to support creative and innovative programs that would not normally be funded through the school budget. These grants enable unique programs, teaching strategies, and learning experiences to become a reality in the classroom.	We raised $14,000+ for the Wilson West Observation Deck-Pond Project and Fitness Trail.
