Our Mission
The Millard Business Community Foundation’s purpose is to provide support and service for worthwhile endeavors in the Millard and Greater Omaha areas.
The Millard Business Community Foundation was founded in 2010 to fulfill the Millard Business Association’s Fourth core objective to “Provide benevolent community programs”. The signature projects of the Foundation are Project Wee Care, Scholarships to Millard area high school seniors and School Connect program.
Project Wee Care provides Hope to Millard Public Schools students and their families thru food, gifts, connections to important non profit services, and a family event during the holiday season. In 2025, 320 families (more than 900 kids) were helped with a ‘hand up’. This link provides more information and opportunities to adopt a youth or family and/or volunteer.
The Foundation will provide six $2,000 scholarships to high school seniors at the three Millard High Schools and Skutt High School. The applications will open for 2026/2027 in the fall, closing February 1, 2027. The scholarships for 2027 to be awarded in February 2027.
School Connect Program. In partnership with the Millard Public Schools, Within Reach, and various non profits, Churches, and businesses, two Millard schools were selected to be a pilot program. School Connect surrounds the school with resources to meet the highest needs for their specific schools. The program started with the simple question: “What is the most important need of your families and staff.” Rockwell Elementary and Andersen Middle School were the first two schools selected for the program. Identified needs include food insecurity, teacher/staff appreciation, facility upgrades, and transportation. Cather Elementary and North Middle Schools were added for the 2025/2026 school year.
23rd Annual Scholarship Golf Scramble is an important source of funds for the high school scholarships. This year 100 golfers participated in the event held on September 18, 2025 at Pacific Springs Golf Course. The 2026 scramble is September 17, with a 9 AM shot gun start.
