Student Chest Drive

For 35 years, the Foundation has supported achievement for all students, leveraging donations and community resources to meet emergent needs quickly and to enrich the lives and learning opportunities for all students. 

AND this year Columbia Credit Union has stepped up to support the efforts of VPS students by offering a $15,000 match! That means every gift up to $15,000 will be matched dollar for dollar!

Please consider making a gift in honor of your student and their teacher to provide direct aid to students facing learning barriers due to economic need, as well as funding for learning enrichment and mentoring programs.

Donate online, visit your local Columbia Credit Union branch, or return the donation envelope sent home with elementary students in early November.

Together we can ensure all students come to school happy, healthy, and ready to learn!
