Every Child, Every Dream

Because when students feel seen, supported, and celebrated—they sparkle.

What We Do

It only takes one moment to change a life.
One spark. One chance. One yes.

The Mapleton Education Foundation is here to make those moments happen—not by luck—by design.

We invest in students and educators by funding opportunities that ignite curiosity, inspire confidence, and create connection. Whether it’s a classroom transformed by a bold idea, a student stepping into an experience they never imagined, or a teacher supported at just the right time—our mission is to make possibility feel personal.

We know that when students are lifted up, they rise.
When teachers are trusted, they soar.
And when a community believes in its schools, everything changes.

This is what we stand for.
This is what we make possible.
And we invite you to be part of it.

A World of Wonder.

When students step beyond the classroom, they encounter moments of awe that ignite curiosity and shape their dreams.
