For seven years, the Decatur Education Foundation has worked hard to give Decatur's students and teachers added support they would not have received from any other source. The Low Country Boil, now a primary fundraising event for the Decatur Education Foundation, started as a small, invitation-only party and has consistently grown in attendance over the past five years.

A few examples of DEF’s impact in its first seven years:

  • $150,000 in mini-grants to support innovative teaching and 150 professional development scholarships for teachers

  • Nearly 19,000 new books purchased for economically disadvantaged students in pre-K through 5th grade

  • 600 scholarships for students attending summer school, summer camps and after-school academic support

  • $32,000 in annual college scholarships for Decatur High seniors

Mark your calendar now for October 23, 2008 for an evening of great food, live music, and festivities – all for a great cause. You won't want to miss this!
