Golden Bell Education Foundation
The Greater Boca Raton Chamber of Commerce’s Education Foundation exists to support the Boca Raton public school system by administering funds and educational programs that promote business skills and workforce readiness. Golden Bell has been awarding grants for over thirty years, impacting more than 850,000 students’ education.
Golden Bell was created by the Chamber’s Board of Directors as a way to give back to their members. The Foundation exists to support Boca Raton public schools by administering funds and educational programs that promote business skills for students. By giving to schools today, the Foundation is creating a stronger generation of leaders for tomorrow that will go on to work and lead throughout our local community. Since its inception, over $1.8 million has been awarded to Boca Raton public schools.

Golden Bell protects business for you by keeping Boca Raton public schools "A rated." By doing that, the Foundation is contributing towards the effort of making Boca Raton one of the most desirable places to live. The Foundation is hard at work year-long identifying and assessing needs of the school district, conducting follow-up visits with recipients from the previous year’s grant process, and awarding grants for the upcoming year.
The Golden Bell Education Foundation had a record-breaking year for grant requests received and grant requests fulfilled for the 2022-23 school year. The Foundation is proud to share that it will be awarding just over $110,000 to Boca Raton public schools this Fall.

The Foundation would not have made the impact it has without the support of our community. Together, we continue to change the way teachers teach and students learn throughout Boca Raton.
