About Us
Our Mission
Our mission is to enrich and enhance educational opportunities for student success in the Desert Sands Unified School District by securing funding and resources through strong community partnerships.
Our Vision
To bridge gaps, open doors, and create opportunities, ensuring every Desert Sands Unified School District student has the tools to thrive.
Our History
The Desert Sands Educational Foundation (DSEF) was first established in 1991 and later revitalized in March 2012, when it regained its tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (Tax ID# 33-0452541). Since then, the Foundation has been dedicated to providing financial, educational, and community resources to ensure that every student in the Desert Sands Unified School District (DSUSD) has access to the full benefits of an excellent education, opportunities that extend beyond what state funding alone can provide.
While its early efforts focused on bringing technology into classrooms across the five cities served by DSUSD, the Foundation’s work has since expanded to support all aspects of a high-quality education.
