Keep PEB schools open.
Empower every child.

Every child deserves an education. The Education Fund helps make that possible for every student, every day. This ensures no child is left behind, provides all schools with equitable support, and helps every classroom thrive.

Individual Scholarships

While the Education Fund helps every student and school thrive, we know some donors prefer to support individual student scholarships. That gift is still deeply important. It changes a life through education. Click the button to learn more and meet students waiting for sponsors.
