The Monticello EIE Fund is an independent community organization that provides charitable resources to enhance educational programs in the School District of Monticello. Anyone can make a gift, large or small, to the fund. Monticello EIE consists of two separate funds, the Immediate Needs Fund – for short-term funds that meet the needs of current projects and the Endowment Fund – a long-term based fund for continued education projects. Gifts can be made to honor the memory of a loved one, honor a favorite educator or community member, mark an anniversary, class reunion or commemorate any special occasion. Your gift will provide enhanced educational opportunities for the children of our community.
The current Advisory Board includes Melody Flesher, Dave Gietzel, Don Roe, Lita Appel, Jeff Zanow, and Jesse Wahl
The Monticello Excellence in Education Fund is a component of the Community Foundation of Southern Wisconsin. We invite you to make a difference in the life of a child. Your tax deductible donation stays in the Monticello School District.
