Who We Are
The Las Cruces Public Schools Foundation, Inc., was conceived in 1999 and quickly developed in gaining support and in attracting contributions. The Foundation is a separate entity from the school district operating and managing its gifts separately from the school system. With its nonprofit status and mission to support the schools, the Foundation is able to give more financial help to our students, educators and district programs each year.
We welcome feedback from the community, especially LCPS staff. Contact Leslie Cervantes, LCPS Foundation Executive Director, 505 S. Main St., Ste 249, Las Cruces, NM 88001. 527-5946, or .
