Our goals are as follows:

• To encourage community and private sector relationships that will serve the interests and needs of the Frankford Public Schools along with the Branchville/Frankford Recreational Community;
• To solicit ongoing charitable contributions of equipment and funds to benefit both schools and the community;
• To initiate fundraising projects and events to benefit various programs and facilities for both groups;
• To serve as a catalyst for efforts to bring positive attention to our schools and community.

Frankford and its public schools face many fiscal challenges. All too often, budget constraints force school boards to make agonizing choices about what education programs must go instead of what new programs to support. 

Recreational projects discarded with little chance of advancement.

Many communities are finding real value in the efforts of educational and recreational foundations to generate additional sources of revenue for programs and services that enhance the curriculum, learning and recreational environments. To this end, residents in Branchville and Frankford have established the Frankford Recreation/Education Foundation, a broad-based, non-profit community organization.
