About Us

The DMPS Foundation works to meaningfully support and assist Des Moines Public Schools in empowering every student to succeed.

Every request we fulfill is an investment in our educators, their classrooms, and the future of our students. But we can’t do it alone. Your support helps ensure that no teacher’s vision is limited by a lack of resources.
