Giving & Lasting Impact
Every Gift Opens a Door
When you give to the Elizabethtown Area Education Foundation, you help create opportunities that can shape a student’s future. Your generosity supports innovative learning, career exploration, student wellness, scholarships, the arts, athletics, and the programs that help EASD students learn, grow, and thrive.
Whether you are making a personal gift, investing through your business, planning for the future, or honoring someone special, there are meaningful ways to make a lasting impact.
Personal Giving
Donors may choose to direct a gift to a current targeted initiative, a Sustainability Fund, student scholarships, or the Foundation’s area of greatest need. Recurring gifts are also a meaningful way to provide dependable support throughout the year.
Support the Foundation’s Greatest Need
- Help the Foundation respond flexibly to the most important needs and opportunities for EASD students.
Explore Current Targeted Initiatives
- Support a current District priority, such as the Facility Dog Program, crisis response counseling services, or the Greenhouse Refresh.
Explore Sustainability Funds
- Make a long-term investment in academic programs, agriculture, skilled trades, athletics, the arts, or student wellness and support services.
Business & Corporate Giving
Businesses play an essential role in helping EASD students prepare for successful futures. Corporate gifts, sponsorships, and community partnerships can support District priorities, student programs, scholarships, and future fundraising initiatives.

Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC) Program
Through Pennsylvania’s Educational Improvement Tax Credit program, eligible businesses can receive state tax credits while helping expand educational opportunities for EASD students.
EITC participation helps the Foundation support approved programs that strengthen learning, career readiness, and student success. Businesses interested in participating can learn more about eligibility, the application process, and the impact of an EITC contribution.

Employer Matching Gifts
Many employers match charitable gifts made by their employees. If your employer offers a matching-gift program, your contribution to the Foundation may have an even greater impact.
Check with your employer’s human resources or benefits office to learn whether your gift may be matched.
Planned Giving
A planned gift is a meaningful way to create a legacy of opportunity for future EASD students. Gifts made through a will, trust, beneficiary designation, or other estate-planning arrangement can help ensure the Foundation’s work continues for generations to come.

Gifts in Honor or Memory
A gift to the Foundation can be a meaningful way to honor or remember a teacher, coach, graduate, family member, friend, or other member of the EASD community.
These gifts celebrate the people and experiences that have made a difference while helping create new opportunities for students.
