How To Donate

All alumni and friends that participated in activities at Essex School are encouraged to donate $104.00 in recognition of the 104 Corner Conference Championships.

Farmers may make a charitable contribution of an agricultural commodity at United Farmers Co-Op in Essex & Red Oak, Green Plains and Gavilon in Shenandoah. The foundation will be issued a check for the price of the commodities value on the day given to the elevator.

Every bushel counts whether it is 10 or severy 100 bushels and will help enhance and enrich the education of Essex students.

Give a donation equivalent to a dollar a day for one or more years. A dollar a day is less than the price of a cup of coffee but will have a great impact on the education opportunities for the school.

You may choose to make the donation in one payment of $365.00, two payments of $182.50, quarterly payments of $91.25, or have $31.42 automatically deducted from your checking account monthly.

If you would like to sign up for the 365 Club, please call Ian Isaacson at 712.246.8709
