You Can Make a Difference!

Our most vivid memories from school are often from those extraordinary experiences–field trips to the museum, a trip to a concert, an overnight camping adventure, a visit by a local theater troupe.  Or maybe we remember when a new shipment of books or equipment arrived, enlivening our classroom library or lab.

Berkeley Public Education Foundation is about creating these moments and more:  we deliver the enrichment that the Berkeley community values and supports with its contributions.  We all benefit from this generosity!

• Teachers propose ideas, and we respond with grants.
• Teachers ask for support in the classroom, we respond with volunteers.
• Teachers and donors share a passion?  We support their collaboration.

There is nothing ‘extra’ about what BPEF does .  Your money directly supports the real needs  of teachers, staff and students.

Members of Gamelan Sekar Jaya conducted a residency at John Muir School, culminating in a performance for students and parents.
