In 1993, the Dixie Children's Fund was founded as the education foundation for the Dixie School District.  In August 2010, the Dixie Children’s Fund changed its name to Can Do!.  We believe that our children are the future, and the mission of Can Do! is to raise funds to enrich the education of all Dixie School District students by providing them with the academic foundation to continue their education. We work in partnership with the District, site-based organizations and the community to give our children the best education possible.

The Dixie Children's Fund, dba Can Do! is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.  Our Federal Tax ID number is 68-0298033
