You know the saying, "Put your money where your mouth is". Our staff at Columbus Public Schools has the opportunity each year to pledge a one-time or 10-month payroll deduction to donate directly to the Columbus Public Schools Foundation and/or the Columbus Area United Way. While there are many worthwhile causes, both of these directly support and benefit our students and their families throughout the year in a variety of proven programs.

This year, 431 of our staff elected to donate and raised a total of $72,159 toward the two non-profit organizations. "I am so proud of the selfless and gracious members of our staff," said Superintendent Dr. Chip Kay, "who supported these two organizations through this process."
