About

The Argyle Community Fund is a permanent endowment created to enhance and improve the quality of life in the Argyle area. A portion of the Fund's earnings are disbursed annually in the form of grants. Since its founding in 2000, the Argyle Community Fund has given more than $20,000 back to the community. The Fund is led by a volunteer advisory board of community members who initiate fundraising activities and determine grant disbursement.

Argyle Excellence in Education Fund

The Argyle Excellence in Education (EIE) Fund is an independent community organization that provides private resources toenhance educational programs, offer extended educational opportunities, encourage innovation, and recognize the achievements of students and staff of the Argyle School District.

We invite you to make a difference in the life of a child by making a gift to the Fund. All gifts are well appreciated. The size of the gift does not matter because each gift will help the fund grow. The Fund began from donations made by the Argyle Alumni and memorial donations. We encourage alumni to spread the word at gatherings or reunions. Contact an Argyle Fund advisory board member to receive more information or Linda Gebhardt of the Community Foundation at (608) 328-4060.
