Since 1988, the Manatee Education Foundation has been granting wishes and opening educational doors in the School District of Manatee County as a direct support and private 501(c) 3 foundation. Wishes are opportunities to help a student succeed and we strive to offer endless possibilities with unlimited benefits for all students.

It is the mission of the Manatee Education Foundation to provide funding for innovative programs and enhanced educational opportunities for the teachers and students of Manatee County Public Schools beyond allocated state dollars. Learn how you can make wishes come true!
