The power of the corporate match

The Walton High School Foundation is a 501(c)(3) which means your donations to the capital campaign are tax deductible. Also, many community employers offer corporate matching to employee charity donations. This is an easy way to double or even triple your donation, and the corporate match counts toward the family donation total! Please contact your employer to determine if they offer corporate matching. Feel free to contact us if you have questions. In the 2025-2026 campaign, corporate matching from AIG, Microsoft, Norfolk Southern and McKinsey is underway! The following area companies have offered corporate matching in prior years:

  • AT&T
  • Ciena
  • Coca-Cola
  • Colonial Pipeline
  • Experian
  • Home Depot
  • McKinsey & Company
  • Microsoft
  • Oracle
  • Prudential Financial
  • Quest Diagnostics
  • State Street
  • Truist
  • Voya Financial
  • Vulcan Materials Company
  • Warner Media

The 2025-2026 Capital Campaign

The Walton Foundation Capital Campaign closed the bow campaign December 1st. We are truly grateful to the many donors who participated, helping to paint the town blue with Raider spirit!

The foundation continues to welcome donations. We also encourage families to check for corporate matching through their employers for 503c organizations like ours. Our annual campaign seeks to raise $175,000 in the 2025-2026 cycle to cover the cost off at least 1.5 FTE needs on campus. At this mid-year point, we are close but not quite at goal.

Your contribution is valued at any level. The Foundation does extend its major perks for donations at or above $250. Donors at this level will receive invitations to quarterly Principal coffee chats. The first chat, held in October, was well-attended. Donate now to be included in the remaining three Coffee Chats this school year.

 Donor Perks are illustrated here.

All families who donate to the Walton Foundation receive the 2025-2026 car magnet – no matter the dollar amount.

Already given this fall? Thank you. And check your student’s backpack for the new car magnet which is distributed in homerooms once you give to the 2025-2026 campaign.

Contact the Walton High School Foundation for more information or donate now!

Bow-tastic Fall

The 2025 Capital Campaign recognizes donors at the $250 or higher level with a mailbox bow. Senior families are recognized with a special ribbon to highlight the import of this graduating year. We invite all families to showcase their bow by snapping a picture and tagging our instagram page waltonhsfoundation.

Boo Your Teachers!

Join the fun, spread a little Boo!  Our SLC students want to show some “love” to the teachers & staff at Walton for Halloween.  They are offering one size boo bags for purchase and hope to deliver fun system wide to every staff member! Each $15 Boo Bag will include a $5 gift card, assorted candy and a Halloween treat.

Order Boo Bag(s)

Orders will be taken through most of October, and Boo’s will be delivered on Wednesday, October 29th.  All proceeds from this event will go to the efforts of the Student Leadership Council and their work in supporting the Walton Community!
