A Non-Exhaustive List of Local Companies That Support Education

This list covers all the local companies I could find that support educational programs that may become of use to our school community. Other local companies support higher education, but, for our purposes, aren't included. All of these companies require or give preference to schools in proximity of their operating area.     

Alterra-Contributes in-kind donations.

Bergner's- Holds a "community day" in November where schools and non-profits sell coupon books and keep all of the profits.

Briggs and Stratton- Conducts charitable giving for organizations.

Firstar/US Bank- In addition to volunteer hours, 23 percent of all charitable giving is directed toward education.

Harley-Davidson- The H-D Foundation targets communities with the greatest need and places an emphasis on education, specifically in the areas of core curriculum and academic enhancers.

Kohl's-  If three Kohl's associates volunteer a minimum of three hours for a youth-serving non-profit, the non-profit receives a $500 grant through Kohl's Cares for Kids' A-team program.

Manpower - Provides adult education with workforce development programs.

Roundy's Supermarkets, Inc.- The Roundy's Foundation supports youth literacy programs and provides grant opportunities for these efforts. Roundy's also provides in-kind donations and charitable donations.

Please let me know if I am missing any or if you know of smaller businesses that would be willing to contribute to the school!
