Fondacija javnih škola Minnetonke održava usklađenost sa svojom poveljom i namjerom da služi Školskom okrugu Minnetonka putem svog programa grantova za nastavnike i odabranih dugoročnih investicija putem svog fonda. Osim toga, putem posebnog dogovora, Fondacija može pružiti mogućnosti za podršku prikupljanju sredstava za stipendije koje odobrava Okrug. Fondacija ne može prihvatiti donacije ili odobrenja za programe koje nisu odobrili Fondacija i Okrug.
Fondacija javnih škola Minnetonke ne služi kao prolazni ili fiskalni agent (tj. prikuplja i drži sredstva u ime druge grupe ili prosljeđuje donacije drugoj organizaciji) za klubove podrške, udruženja roditelja i nastavnika, studentske klubove, prikupljanje sredstava ili druge vannastavne programe ili aktivnosti. Ovo nije dozvoljeno prema našim upravnim smjernicama i neprofitnom statusu.
Ako imate pitanja o tome da li se određena oznaka može prihvatiti, obratite se Colleen Riley, izvršnoj direktorici Fondacije javnih škola Minnetonke.
