Making a Brighter Future

The Wausau School Foundation was established in 1999 by a group of concerned citizens, teachers and administrators to create a resource for the needs of the public schools within the Wausau School District. 

State budget falls short when it comes to supporting the school districts. The Wausau School Foundation, with community awareness and support, helps fill the gaps in funding for students, classrooms or schools as a whole.
