About Us
About Anacortes Schools Foundation
ASF is led by a board of 16 directors and 1 part-time staff (Marta McClintock was hired in September 2017 as ASF's first Executive Director). Our board and staff are highly committed to ensuring ASF's resources best serve our students.
Our Mission
Empower and inspire Anacortes students through scholarships and enriched learning opportunities.
To accomplish this mission, ASF raises funds through two major annual events; the "Fueling Education Fun Run" and the "Celebrate the Season Dinner & Auction."
In addition, we solicit funds for the Ready to Learn Fair, through our annual campaign and for specific programs through ASF Designated Donations.
Anacortes Schools Foundation is proud to partner with Anacortes School District.
Our Vision
ASF builds relationships with donors who want to make a difference in our schools. Through funding and program support, we focus on helping the whole student thrive and achieve their highest potential.
