Wiseburn Education Foundation

Partnering with WEF

The Wiseburn Education Foundation has been a trusted name in our community for over 25 years.

Partnering with us allows your business or organization to plug into our community network during fun family events, while also supporting the critical work we do in local schools.

We offer several pathways to partnership, from matching gifts, to flash matches, to silent auction donations, to event sponsorship and in-kind donations.

Why Wiseburn?

Wiseburn’s schools.

Pathways to Partnership

A matching gift is an easy way to increase your donation to WEF. Employee matching gifts are typically at a dollar-for-dollar rate, but some companies go even further by tripling their employees’ donation. Contact us for a list of companies known to match employee charitable contributions or to add your company or organization to our list.

Make a charitable donation in celebration of great public schools and challenge the community to match your gift!

Your business will be widely promoted on one select day, chosen to maximize your visibility and generate the broadest support for our schools. Flash Match donors are part of the Ed Foundation Corporate Heroes program and make a significant impact on our students, ensuring every child receives an excellent education. Contact us to learn more.

During our larger fundraising events, we hold silent auctions for prizes. In the past, businesses have donated family photoshoots, tickets to sporting events and amusement parks, gift baskets, and so much more. Learn more about our silent auctions and find out how to submit your prize here or get in touch with us today to see what makes sense for your organization.

Our events draw in thousands of local community members each year. To ensure our events are a success, we rely on sponsorships and in-kind donations from local businesses and organizations. Sponsorships of our events are a highly visible way to be acknowledged and solidified as a partner of the Wiseburn community. Read on to learn more, and contact us to see how we can partner for our next event.

We encourage unique partnerships and can work with individuals and organizations to develop a custom sponsorship. Many of our longstanding partnerships were created as out-of-the-box arrangements that we shaped together. To get started, reach out to us with more information about your philanthropic goals.
