Rockford Lutheran School Foundation

The Rockford Lutheran School Foundation is a not-for-profit corporation, chartered in 1990 as a means to provide financial support for Rockford Lutheran School. The Foundation receives funding from monetary donations, stock donations, life insurance, bequests from wills and trusts, and other property. Assets from these donations are invested.

Annually, the Foundation distributes to the Rockford Lutheran School a percentage of the invested funds. This income provides funding for:

financial assistance
teacher enhancement programs
operating costs
and/or other programs designated by donors

Currently, the Foundation has more than $1,000,000 in assets. Last year the Foundation was able to distribute more than $100,000 in funds to the Rockford Lutheran School, helping to reduce tuition costs.

If you would like to make a donation to the Foundation or have questions, please contact Becky Chewning at Rockford Lutheran School at 815.877.9551, ext. 119.
