Honor a teacher with a Valentine, give to the schools foundation

Mountain Brook City Schools Foundation is bringing back its “We Love Our Teachers” campaign for the third year.  

Parents and students can thank their teachers, school staff or administrators by donating to the foundation in their honor. Each time a teacher is honored, he or she will receive a Valentine’s note from the foundation letting him or her know.  

Boxes will be placed in each school for donation checks and pledge cards throughout February. Participants should list the teacher’s name and the name of the person/family making the gift on the check if they do not use a pledge card. Families can also make donations at mtnbrookschoolsfoundation.com or through the mail at PO Box 530834, Mountain Brook, AL 35253.

Last year the campaign raised more than $10,000, and organizers hope to surpass that number this year. 

The Mountain Brook City Schools Foundation, an independent non-profit corporation, secures resources from individuals, corporations and foundations to support technological advances and professional development for the staff of the school system. Gifts to the foundation are tax deductible.

Foundation Director Anne Womack said she encourages gifts to “bring some mid-winter cheer to someone who has made a difference in your life or the life of your child.”
