Cuyuna Lakes Education Foundation

We make innovative, educational programs possible via classroom or school-wide grants that benefit students in the ISD 182 geographic area. These grants support programs which would not otherwise be funded.

All contributions are tax deductible and will be utilized by CLEF to support programs that enhance the student experience. We rely entirely on your generosity. You can make a difference in the lives of students by helping CLEF provide enriching opportunities that would not otherwise be available.

CLEF was established in 1992 by Dr. Gary Grittner to enhance the success and well-being of students in C-I Public Schools.

We believe a non-governmental, non-tax supported group run by community volunteers is a necessary and effective mechanism to enhance educational opportunities. Resources which support the schools also serve to improve the desirability of the community for employers and the overall viability of the community.

Thank you! Your generous gift will be available immediately to support the operations of the Cuyuna Lakes Education Foundation.
