The Rochester Education Foundation was established during the 2001-02 school year as a not-for-profit corporation, wholly dedicated to enriching and supplementing the educational programs of the Rochester Community Unit School District, located in Rochester, Illinois.

Rochester Education Foundation have donated more than $70,000.00 to the school district over the past several years.

In a world where budget demands are increasing and financial resources are shrinking, the Foundation provides a means of directing private donations, gifts and bequests to programs and projects that might otherwise go unfunded in our schools.
