Ocean County Foundation For Vocational Technical Education

The Ocean County Foundation for Vocational Technical Education was established in 1994 to help ensure a quality education for the students of Ocean County Vocational Technical School (OCVTS). It was formed by a group of corporate and community leaders in Ocean County. The group is independent of, though fully supported by, the OCVTS District.

The mission of this educational foundation is to augment, supplement, and compliment OCVTS programs through the attraction of private resources for the exclusive benefit of students and staff. Contributions to the Foundation are eligible for the maximum federal income tax deduction (this is not intended as tax advice, check with your tax/legal advisor). The Foundation's work is focused on the employability of OCVTS students by providing its support in the following three areas:

1 - FACILITATE STUDENT DEVELOPMENT

3 - TECHNOLOGY AND TRAINING
