Why Support?

A Healthy School System is a Healthy Community

A thriving educational experience is the lifeblood of a healthy community. While tax funding provides for the essentials, the Quincy Public Schools Foundation is here to make sure that every student has access to the tools they need to grow into successful community members. This includes making sure teachers have the resources they need to be their best and schools have the facilities to provide engaging learning opportunities.

Investing in our schools is investing in our community's future.

Balancing Immediate Needs vs. Long-Term Success

The money raised during the campaign helps to fund immediate projects in the district through the distribution of non-endowed gifts, while also safeguarding & enhancing the future of the Quincy Public Schools Foundation though the investment of endowed gifts.

Both types of support are so important to the ensuring the Quincy Public Schools experience is fulfilling and exceeding the needs of our students.

Giving Back to an Institution that Gave so Much

QHS Alumni know that when they were student, they were supported by previous generations of Blue Devils who cared about their success. As QHS alumni graduate, they can pay it forward to ensure current and future students have the same opportunities they did. These experiences are not guaranteed, but made possible by those who understand the importance of giving back.

Being a Blue Devil is something to be proud of, and it is up to all Blue Devils to continue that time honored tradition of quality. Through the QPS Foundation's Annual Campaign, the entire community can invest in student experiences that lead to the distinctive excellence for which QPS is known.

Give From the Heart

Together We Accomplish More

Hi everyone,

We all know that Quincy is special, and one thing that makes our community exceptional is the shared experience provided by Quincy Public Schools. Whether you are an alumni, a spouse, a parent, an educator or a community member that benefits from the accomplishments of our students, QPS has touched all of our lives.

When it comes to supporting our schools, tax funding does not cover the needs of an exceptional education. If we want that for our students, it is up to all of us to create that. The experiences that happen in our schools directly impact our community and its future. It is in all of our best interests to make the Quincy Public Schools experience as extraordinary as possible.

When we work together, we can accomplish the exceptional.

Thank you for dreaming big with us!
