How We're Funded

The ERF is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization that is supported by contributions from ESBOCES employees through a voluntary payroll deduction and by fundraising activities.

ALL CONTRIBUTIONS ARE TAX DEDUCTIBLE

Payroll Deductions

Just a few dollars each pay period can make a difference in supporting the foundation. To contribute through a payroll deduction, please complete the attached form and send to Payroll at the Hines Administration Center.

Fundraisers

Each year a holiday party fundraiser is held  in December which offers good company, food, beverages, and music. Bountiful gift baskets, generously donated from staff at ESBOCES buildings, are raffled off during the party and all proceeds contribute to the ERF fund. We hope you’ll join us. Information about the holiday party is sent out each fall via email.

Watch for information about other fundraising activities throughout the school year.
