    Corvallis Destination Imagination Team

    Destination Imagination provides an educational program for students to learn and experience creativity, teamwork, and problem solving. Destination ImagiNation is an exhilarating after-school activity in which students work in teams to solving mind-bending Challenges and present their solutions at Tournaments.

    Teams are tested to think on their feet, work together, and devise original solutions that satisfy the requirements of the Challenges. Participants gain more than just basic knowledge and skills - they learn to unleash their imaginations and take unique approaches to problem solving.

    SOS Fund Matching Gift Opportunity

    We hear stories of students who can't participate in activities with their peers or have difficulty concentrating on schoolwork because they lack some basic needs. You can help meet this need through the Student Opportunity for Success (SOS) Fund. Your investment helps principals assist students get the most out of their school experience even if their families are struggling financially.

    Your donation will be doubled through the generosity of an anonymous donor who will match the first $10,000 in gifts to the SOS Fund dollar for dollar!

    Donate $50 or more right now to help a student in financial need. Click on the Donate Now button to the right and designate your gift to 'SOS Fund'.

    Help our students have every opportunity to learn, to grow, and to succeed!

    As of January 20, 2010, more than $30,000 has been distributed to schools and programs for the SOS Fund! While more students still need help, this is an excellent to start for this new program. Thank you!
