Putnam City - Public Schools Foundation

Over the last 20 years, the Putnam City Public Schools Foundation has invested more than $1 million in Putnam City schools.  The Foundation has built high school cultures that foster learning, communication and support (Challenge Day), encouraged children to read and write stories (Author Visits), provided classroom equipment and computers (School Grants), recognized excellence in the classrooms, and encouraged students and teachers to further their education (Awards and Scholarships).  Just recently, the Foundation received the 2008 Outstanding Program Award by the Oklahoma Foundation for Excellence.

The Oklahoma City Community Foundation is offering the John Kirkpatrick Centennial Endowment Challenge.  With your help, we can greatly increase the Foundation’s endowment fund at the Oklahoma City Community Foundation.  Any gifts made to our fund through December 31, 2008 will be matched dollar for dollar up to $5,000.  That’s a possible $10,000 increase!

As a member of our Putnam City community, won’t you consider a gift to continue the legacy of our school district?  Please consider a gift of $25, $50, $100 or more to help us receive the full match available.  Contributions must be made to the Oklahoma City Community Foundation, PO Box 1146, OKC, OK  73101.  Please specify Putnam City Schools Foundation.  Your contribution is fully tax deductible.

Keeping our schools strong is important as parents, property owners and citizens.  I hope you will consider a matching gift.
