The Decatur Education Foundation works 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 several years.

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

  • $170,000 in mini-grants to support innovative teaching and more than 150 professional development scholarships for teachers

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

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

  • $32,000 in college scholarships given annually to graduating seniors from Decatur High School

Mark your calendar now for Thursday October 14, 2010 for an evening of great food, live music, and festivities – all for a great cause. You won't want to miss this!
