Description

Carlin Nalley Foundation

The Carlin Nalley Foundation is a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting students at Lisle Senior High School and fostering a strong alumni community. Established in 2005, the foundation is named in honor of Carlin Nalley, a legendary teacher, coach, athletic director, and superintendent of schools.

Mission

The foundation's mission encompasses three primary objectives:

  1. Scholarships: Providing financial awards to graduating seniors across various academic fields and achievements. These scholarships honor legendary educators and include awards such as the Thespian Award, Science Award, Industrial Technology Award, Brian Piccolo and Babe Zaharias Awards, and the Alumni Legacy Award[1][3].
  2. Career Support: The foundation partners with Lisle High School to enhance student enrichment programs by offering career counseling and mentoring opportunities[1].
  3. Alumni Engagement: Organizing events that bring together alumni for reunions, recognizing military service and alumni achievements, and celebrating shared experiences and school pride[1][2].

History

The foundation was created with an initial gift of $60,000 from Kurt Grutzmacher, a 1976 graduate of Lisle High School. The goal was to honor Carlin Nalley's contributions to education and build a legacy of academic excellence for future generations[1].

Activities

  • Annual Events: These include All Years reunions, golf outings, and other social gatherings that raise funds for scholarships and strengthen alumni bonds[2].
  • Tax Exempt Status: As a 501(c)(3) organization, donations to the foundation are tax deductible, with the federal tax ID number being 26-1987884[1].

The foundation aims to grow its impact by expanding its scholarship program and increasing alumni engagement in order to support more students pursuing higher education[1].
