Giving
Why Give?
Support from people like you is critical to the success of our school system, its teachers and its students. Public funding alone is not enough to provide our students and educators the opportunities they deserve to be successful. Through your generosity, the Johnston County Education Foundation is able to enhance both the teacher and student experience in our schools. As an added bonus, your contribution to the JCEF is tax deductible.

The Johnston County Education Foundation is now providing a way for you to remember those special people who have touched your life. Your contribution through a memorial gift to the Johnston County Education Foundation is a way to honor the memory of a person who positively impacted your life. We utilize these contributions for our grant programs, so the funds help teachers find new and innovative ways to educate our young people.
To memorialize someone who touched your life, please send the following information to the address above:
Your name
Name of person you wish to memorialize

We’ll take care of the rest.
