Founded in 1985, the Education Foundation of Osceola County began with a bold and inspiring vision: to provide a scholarship opportunity for every graduating senior in Osceola County.
What started as a simple yet powerful goal has grown into a dynamic organization dedicated to supporting students, teachers, and schools across the district.
Today, our mission remains rooted in expanding educational opportunities and empowering every student to succeed—both in and out of the classroom. Through innovative programs, strong community partnerships, and continued scholarship support, the Foundation works to remove barriers and invest in the future of Osceola’s youth.
From that first dream of helping seniors reach college to now serving thousands through mentorship, literacy programs, free school supplies, scholarships, and career readiness initiatives, we are proud to continue bringing people and resources together to support and enhance public education in Osceola County
Supporting students, teachers and families in Osceola County is our purpose.
Through our programs, we are able to accomplish our mission.We have many opportunities for community volunteers, too!
