THANK-A-TEACHER “The great teachers fill you up with hope…” -- Pat Conroy, novelist

QUESTION: Our lives are touched by great teachers. This school year, did you or your child find

hope in help from a teacher or other school staff? Why not tell the teacher or staffer thanks?

Act now to Thank a Teacher or Salute a Staffer with help from the Public Education Foundation.

Each day, scores of school staff members offer not only education, but also guidance, support and

hope to countless families. Teachers, transportation and therapists, custodians and cooks – it seems

to take a village to run a school. Education must include an exceptional staff.

IT’S ALWAYS TIME FOR A “THANK YOU”: When you use the form below, you are not only

expressing gratitude, you are also investing in providing innovative grant opportunities to teachers

and schools for the next academic year. It’s true! "Thank-A-Teacher" and “Salute a Staffer”

contributions are returned to schools in the form of direct grants to teacher, school and administrator

applicants. Since 1986, PEF has awarded nearly $7 million to our schools – that is more than

16,200 projects and programs.

Please take a moment to thank that special teacher or staffer now. As soon as the form is received,

PEF will send the appropriate card to the honored person in your name. (Donation amounts are

confidential.) Your honored teacher or staff member will also be recognized by the EVSC Board of

School Trustees in June and on the PEF Annual Honor Roll in August. For all and help and hope

you received this year, it’s always time for a “thank you.”

Please send your contribution with the form below to: Public Education Foundation P O Box 1163 (PEF is a 501 c 3 non-profit; donations may be tax deductible.) Evansville IN 47706
