31 Years of Service to the K-12 educational community in Bend, La Pine and Sunriver! The Education Foundation mobilizes community resources to fund innovative academic STEM, art, music & wellness programs that go beyond our normal school funding at the 34 schools within the Bend-La Pine School District and bridges the gap to the business community for education. We provide funding for (1) Classroom Grants for Educators, (2) needs-based Activity Fee support for students to participate in after school athletics, and (3) scholarships for graduating Latinx students and Perseverance Award recipients.
CONGRATULATIONS! The EF board awarded $24,984 in the first ever Back to School classroom grants opportunity! Over $83,000 in requests were received from local public school teachers, demonstrating the need in our K-12 educational environment. We are proud to support our local teachers in this endeavor and look forward to more grant awards next spring! Funding for this fall opportunity came from our generous local business partners in their ongoing give back charity events. We could not do it without them!
