Donate

Established as an independent non-profit organization in 1993, the Foundation started as a vehicle for private funding to support athletics. Today, the Foundation has grown to support programs and projects that impact every aspect of a student’s education.

How It Works

Our goal is to raise, grow, and steward funds for GRPS. Funds are split between unrestricted, donor advised, special initiatives, and named funds. All grants are reviewed annually by GRPSF board members.
