Washington County, OH – Washington County teachers, guidance counselors, and coaches are about to begin their new school term. For the next nine months, they will focus their attention on shaping the young minds in their care. This close interaction gives educators the ability to identify needs of their students; even if those needs are outside of the classroom.

When these needs are identified, Marietta Community Foundation wants our local educators to know we are a resource. Listed below are several funds dedicated to serving local youth who may not have the means they require for success 

• Leola Booth Fund for Kids

Assists with medical care, dental care, shoes, and clothing for Washington County children

• Euna Brown Fund to Aid School Children

Provides financial assistance to school children in the Marietta City School District.

• Sarah Rebecca Warren Fund

Could assist with children’s medical expenses.

• Joseph & Luada Wesel Foundation for Children in Washington County

Provides short-term health, welfare, and  educational resources not available through other sources to children in Washington County.

• Jim Christy Fund for Kids

Helps meet needs, that are not being met by other charitable organizations, for children in Washington County.

If you are a local educator and know of a student who may benefit from these funds, please fill out an application available at your guidance office, or contact us directly at 740-373-3286.
