The Uxbridge Education Foundation is an independent, community-based, non-profit organization established to provide academic and cultural enrichment for the Uxbridge Public Schools and its students.  The Uxbridge Education Foundation will strive to continually improve the profile of public education in Uxbridge.

It was founded in 2005 by a group of citizens that wanted to help improve the education of the students in the Uxbridge Public School system by funding innovative teacher-sponsored programs and initiatives.  Work done by some members of the Uxbridge Futures Committee formed the basis for the initial charter and vision for the Foundation.  Funds would come from donations made by local residents and corporations and be distributed based on a competitive grant program.  A Board of Directors comprising a cross section of interested members of the community would decide how the money raised would be allocated.  In subsequent meetings the Board decided to start a scholarship for students of the UPS system.  To date the Foundation has awarded over $30,000 in grants and scholarships.

The mission of the Foundation is to improve education in the Uxbridge Public School System by providing supplemental funding for educators and students. The Foundation will also act as an independent advocate for the public school system.

 In order to help accomplish our mission, our goals are to:

1. Communication - maintain informed dialog with the school community to enhance the Foundation's role in support of their creative initiatives.
2. Financial growth - continually build sources to establish the fiscal strength of the Foundation by developing a variety of funding sources.
3. Awareness - to heighten visibility of the Foundation's purpose, accomplishments, and impact in the community and to act as an independent advocate for public schools in the town of Uxbridge.
4. Community Support - to inspire community support and encourage diverse involvement.
