WHAT WE DO

We have been serving Kelso students since 1991

In that time, the organization has given over a million dollars in student scholarships and grants to fund programs and activities in Kelso Public Schools.  This past year alone the Foundation provided over $160,000 in scholarships to graduating seniors and more than $16,000 in grants to fund programs at schools throughout the district.
