The BGISD Foundation, Inc. provides opportunities for Alumni and Friends to give back to Bowling Green City Schools. Share your Purple Pride by:

Mentoring a student.
All five Bowling Green Elementary Schools and Bowling Green Junior High have mentoring programs which allow community members to make a difference in a child's life. By participating in the Mentoring Program, you help build a positive relationship by visiting the school for at least 20 minutes twice monthly. Click here for more details.
