Forsyth County Education Foundation

Since 2016, the Forsyth County Education Foundation has provided over $700,000 in grants for innovative projects in Forsyth County schools for students and teachers. Click here to learn more about previous grants given to our schools. We needed the community's support to make a bigger splash for education again to provide more grants for innovative projects in September 2025 with our annual fundraiser, the DUCK DIVE FOR EDUCATION! 

The Duck Dive drawing was held on March 28, 2025 at 1PM at the Cumming Aquatic Center, and you can watch here.  Students, parents and the community were invited to adopt a duck by paying $10 to enter the raffle. This year we had 8189 duck adoptions! Each duck adoption gave them a chance to win $10,000 and supports grants in our schools.  Learn more about past grants here.

A Duck Dive is a raffle. When you adopt a duck for only $10, you were assigned a duck number. All numbered ducks will be thrown into a "pond". At the drawing, one lucky duck was drawn and the winner will win $10,000. The winner was number 2599- Ashley Johnnessee. Click here to watch the 2025 drawing.
