Dipert Family Challenge
Dan Dipert, CEO of Dan Dipert Coaches & Tours, has agreed to match up to $100,000 in donations and pledges that the Foundation receives for its endowment fund over the next year (through September 21, 2010.) The Foundation uses interest income from the endowment and donations to award grants to teachers district-wide for innovative classroom programs.
In 2005, the Dan Dipert Family Fund established a $100,000 family endowment for the Foundation’s programs. Dan Dipert, Sr. encourages community members to think about a teacher who went above and beyond, then provide support that will ensure classroom grant funding into the future. The endowment permits donors to create a legacy of support that will assist in underwriting current programs and help to ensure the future strength of Arlington public education.

Individuals and corporations who partner for $1,500 or greater with the AISD Education Foundation will be included in the Crystal Anniversary Giving Society and recognized on a permanent plaque displayed in the district office. Support at the Crystal Anniversary level can be directed to fund the matching endowment challenge or to fund programs for the 2009-2010 school year.
