Barn Bash
Pull on your party boots and get ready for ZEF's 2019 Barn presented by Barnes & Thornburg and supported by many other local businesses. This year’s event on November 9, 2019 will transform the Golf Club of Indiana into a setting for TexMex cuisine, a silent auction, and a live band as we raise funds in support of teachers and schools.
Join us with a VIP Ticket ($125/person) for the VIP/Sponsor Reception from 5:30-6:30pm including special entertainment, appetizers, dinner, and open bar. Patron Tickets ($75/person before 10/25; $85 after) start at 6:30pm and include dinner and a cash bar.
All ticket types also include silent and live auctions, the chance to bid on trips of a lifetime from AmFund, entertainment and dancing to the band Big Rosco and the Hammers, and a wine and gift card pull.
As one of ZEF’s biggest fundraisers, last year’s Barn Bash raised more than $55,000 to promote excellence in Zionsville Community Schools. Help us make the 2019 event a success by reserving your ticket today!
Eagle Honors
ZEF Eagle Honor Awards are a special recognition to any ZCS teacher or staff member as a way to thank them for the impact they have made on your student, family, or community. Each certificate is sent with a personalized message for a donation to ZEF of $10 or more per honoree.
Eagle Honor Awards are sponsored by KI: Contract Furnishings with additional matching funds provided by Community Foundation of Boone County, BMO Harris Bank, Modern Woodmen, and Trane. We are grateful to these community partners for making it possible for your Eagle Honor Awards donations to be matched up to 4-to-1!
Class Rings
Buy a class ring from Robert Goodman jewelers, and ZEF gets a donation of $20.
License Plates
When you order an Indiana Department of Education license plate online (or at a license branch) and select Zionsville Education Foundation as your recipient, ZEF will receive $18.75 of your plate fee (with the remainder going to elementary counseling programs at the Indiana Department of Education).
Amazon Smile
The Amazon Smile program makes it possible for ZEF to receive a donation every time you make an Amazon purchase. Visit Amazon Smile, search the list of charitable organizations for “Zionsville Education Foundation Inc,” and click the “Select” button when prompted.
