What We Do
The Geneseo Central Education Fund was formed in 2009 to enhance and enrich educational opportunities for students and staff in the Geneseo Central School district that are beyond the reach of a given year's school budget. We believe that the best possible education is the most important investment a community can make. 

In recent years, the Geneseo Central Education Fund’s efforts have expanded to include the Coast Cares Emergency Fund, which provides funding for students in need. From basketball shoes to prom tickets, this fund has been instrumental in closing important financial gaps for some of the GCS student population.

Since its inception, the fund has given out over $75,000 to support students and staff at Geneseo Central. Some of the projects we’ve funded include:

  • Technological innovations including translation devices for parent conferences for non-native English speakers
  • Staff development opportunities 
  • Outside speakers
  • Teacher Appreciation initiatives including end of year gifts & annual thank you postcard campaign Greetings of Gratitude
  • Furniture from sensory rooms to flexible seating in Elementary School classrooms
  • Field trips: we’ve sent students to Geva Theater, the Rochester Museum & Science Center, and our funding has supported 5th Grade Whale Watch
  • Student Wellness Initiatives
  • Creation of the Giving Closet, where students can access essential items like clothing, shoes, and personal care products free of charge
