In order to create a high-performing middle school that prepares all students for success in high school, college and life it takes a community. We are the fundraising arm of that community.

WELCOME

Welcome to the McAuliffe at Smiley Foundation, a 501(c)3 tax-exempt non-profit organization that was established in 2012. The goal of the foundation is to financially support McAuliffe International School in achieving its mission of creating a high-performing middle school that prepares all students for success in high school, college and life. The purpose of the McAuliffe at Smiley Foundation is to help address the funding gap between what the school district is able to provide and the additional resources McAuliffe students need. The Foundation works with the school administration to prioritize school needs, identify which needs require additional fundraising, and then execute fundraising campaigns to address those needs.

Fundraising for McAuliffe falls into the following 4 categories:

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS

Bring the Smiley Campus up to current standards for a 21st century learning environment.

STUDENT SUPPORT 

Supplemental resources to provide disadvantaged students with what they need to be successful.

STAFF SUPPORT

Support faculty through recognition and workplace enhancements.

PROGRAM SPONSORSHIP 

Enable additional learning opportunities to expand student experiences.
