SUPERINTENDENT DANIEL TANOOS
Daily, I reflect upon the great support our students receive from our community. At the
top of that list of supporters is the Vigo County Education Foundation, an organization
that provides many educational opportunities for our students. At the conclusion of
every school year I look forward to attending the Excellence in Education Banquet
sponsored by the Vigo County Education Foundation (VCEF.) This AWESOME event
allows our outstanding educators the opportunity to be recognized for their
contributions to the field of education in our great community. In actuality there
should also be a banquet held to honor the Vigo County Education Foundation for their
support and contributions to our students, staff and community. Such a banquet would
include students who would showcase VCEF – sponsored projects. Parents would
speak to the crowd about their own engagement in after school and evening parent
involvement activities supported by the VCEF. Next, educators would express their
thanks by talking about their ability to enhance a lesson or take a field trip sponsored by the VCEF. Business
leaders would approach the podium and give kudos to the VCEF for sponsoring programs and learning
opportunities that prepare students to enter the work force. Finally, as Superintendent of the school system, I
would give thanks for the leadership of Jenny Thomas and her VCEF Board of Directors. I would thank them
for funding programs that the school system could no longer sponsor due to funding constraints. I would
praise them for their tireless work on behalf of our students, staff and community. Lastly, I would urge the
audience to contribute to the VCEF so that we could continue to offer the best learning opportunities for our
students - better than those offered in any other school system in our great state.

A MESSAGE FROM YOUR FOUNDATION LEADERSHIP
Dear Friends of Education,
Terre Haute’s recent recognition as an Indiana
Community of the Year would not have been possible
without a strong commitment to educational excellence.
Teaching and learning excellence permeates our
community’s commitment to the students we serve. The
Vigo County Education Foundation (VCEF) is pleased to
enable this excellence through its student-centered
activities and generous support.
Dr. Brad Balch,
President
The VCEF believes that every student must be valued.
Further, we believe that educators must be embraced,
encouraged and supported. We believe that community
involvement in teaching and learning is essential, and we
Mrs. Jennifer Thomas,
believe that supporting student achievement creates a
Executive Director
successful citizenry with sustainable leadership.
We know that schools and students with adequate resources, creative approaches and, of course, caring
and committed teachers are second to none. However, school budgets are strained, state and federal
funding is declining dramatically, and educators are persistently challenged to maximize student
learning with less.
In an effort to minimize these competing demands, the VCEF granted $196,000 for the 2010-11 school
year alone. Over $83,000 of that total was awarded for 100 mini and school wide grants, impacting the
educational programs of nearly 8,500 students. The support that the VCEF provides is dependent, in
large part, upon the generosity and commitment of the community that we serve.
An unparalleled opportunity exists in our community for the VCEF to support and impact teaching and
learning in our schools. Please join us in our efforts to support educational excellence. You’ll find
additional information about giving opportunities at www.vigocountyeducationfoundation.org.
Sincerely,
Brad Balch
President
Vigo County Education Foundation

ABOUT THE VCEF
T
he Vigo County Education
Foundation
(VCEF) is a nonprofit
organization founded in
1984 to provide enhanced
learning opportunities for
the children in Vigo County.
The VCEF is a self-reliant organization through fundraisers, personal donations, corporate sponsorships, and
contributions.
A volunteer Board of Directors that is comprised of
parents, teachers, administrators, and business and
community leaders governs
the Foundation. Our primary
goal is to augment public
education through building
strong partnerships between
the schools and the community. One successful way we
accomplish this is through
funding classroom educational project grants. The
Foundation’s grant program
funnels more assistance directly to projects designed to
address the unmet needs of
our children.
As citizens of our community, we can take pride in
providing the very best education for our children. The
education that our children
receive is a great benefit to
their futures and to the future of our community. At
the VCEF, we believe that “an
investment in knowledge
pays the best interest.”

VCEF FUNDRAISERS
he VCEF offers many different fundraisers and programs to foster community support of
public education. These programs range from our annual golf scramble to payroll
deductions to the Thank-A-Teacher program. You can play a vital role in enhancing
education for Vigo County students by contributing to one of these great programs.
Benefit Bowl
Planned Giving
The “I Can’t Believe It’s Not A Gutter” Benefit Bowl is a
fun night of bowling, hors d’oeuvres, and an exciting
live auction with Auctioneer Superintendent Tanoos.
Held in September, this newly created annual event
raises money for Vigo County Education Foundation
restricted funds.
This option allows patrons to consider the future of
the Foundation during the estate planning process. A
planned gift to the VCEF can help ensure the future
prosperity of our schools.
“Raise the Grade” Campaign
Through its “Raise the Grade” campaign, the
Foundation was eligible for a grant that matched up to
$25,000 in new or increased funds received by June
30, 2011. During this program, any new donation
doubled in value and a $250 gift became $500 to
support a teacher requested mini-grant.
Fore the Kids Golf Tournament
This golf scramble is held annually on the first Friday
in August. The funds raised from this event help
support VCEF sponsored programs such as classroom
grants, academic competition funds, attendance
programs and recognition of excellent teachers in Vigo
County. Our golfers, sponsors, and volunteers make
this event possible.
Special Events
This year’s special event was a collaboration between
the Vigo County Education Foundation, Vigo County
School Corporation, and Partners Advancing Literacy
Skills to host an evening with Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor, a
world-renowned neuroanatomist, to benefit the Math
Magic, Writing Wonders summer program.
“Committed to Education” License Plates
The Bureau of Motor Vehicles offers a specialized
license plate that benefits the Vigo County Education
Foundation. The license plate has been updated to
feature the new Read On, Indiana! initiative beginning
in 2011. By selecting the “Committed to Education”
license plate at the Bureau of Motor Vehicles, the VCEF
will receive $18.75 of the $40.00 expenditure to help
fund programs created by teachers throughout the
Vigo County School Corporation.
Thank-A-Teacher
This program allows parents, students, or loved ones
to make a contribution to the VCEF in the name of an
outstanding teacher, coach, or school employee. In
return for their hard work and dedication, honorees
received a special pin and certificate. The donation
given to the VCEF returned to the schools through
classroom grants awarded to teachers.
Memorial Gifts
The VCEF offers a way to honor the memory of friends
or loved who believed in the power of education to
change lives positively.
Tributes
Tribute gifts are made to honor those whose
accomplishments in life underscore their commitment
to lifelong learning.
Payroll Deductions
Generous contributions are made by Vigo County
School Corporation employees who want to support
the VCEF. Employees who enroll in the payroll
deduction program have a small amount of money
withheld from their pay every week. The resulting
funds help the Foundation grow and expand its
granting capacity. Just consider this: If 100 teachers
gave $2.00/pay, we would have $5,200 more to grant!
