About Us

Educators are innovators.

The mission of the Citrus County Education Foundation is to provide resources to support the Citrus County School District to enhance the quality of education for present and future generations.

Since 1988, the foundation has offered a variety of programs and events to benefit students and faculty of the Citrus County School District. We offer these programs to help engage students and enrich their education experience to help set them up for success in school and beyond. Through the dedicated help of our volunteers, donors, and staff, we work together to find innovative ways to help the students of Citrus County.
