The WBS Foundation was formed in 2012 by a group of parents and friends for the sole purpose of raising money to enhance the quality education at Wrightsville Beach School. Since its inception, the WBS Foundation has raised more than $350,000 in private donations to enhance the quality of the programs and education for the children at Wrightsville Beach School. Our spending policy emphasizes that funds be deployed quickly and that every student at Wrightsville Beach School benefit from the Foundation’s grants. We intend for our donors’ current contributions to benefit today’s students.

Our Mission
...is to generate discretionary funds to provide for our school’s HR needs above and beyond what traditional funding sources provide. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, we are guided by a volunteer board of parents, friends, and school staff.
