An Alumni Foundation Supports Weiser Schools

  • Local Champion: Weiser School District 431
  • Date Funded: March 3, 2026
  • Grant Amount: $9,820

Weiser schools face ongoing budget constraints that limit resources for students and teachers. With no organized alumni network to support fundraising or special events, district staff and a group of local graduates turned to LOR with an idea. LOR’s funding will help Weiser School District 431 establish a nonprofit alumni foundation and host the group’s first annual Hall of Fame banquet. The foundation will build a network of Weiser graduates who can provide scholarships, support campus projects, and raise funds to benefit students across the district.
