Donate

You have made an important difference in the lives of Alameda students through your support of AEF!

Your generosity in 2023 made it possible for AEF to:

  • Continue to sponsor much needed mental health care help for students and staff and their families.
  • Provide our full Middle School Sports program (volleyball, basketball and track & field), fostering essential life skills like sportsmanship and teamwork, with academic and behavioral tie-ins to help students prepare for high school.
  • Fulfill over 30 Teacher Mini Grants just this Fall alone - focusing on low-income schools so teachers can provide instructional items or experiences unique to their classrooms. Grants have included funding for an amazing 4th grade podcast, curriculum and equipment for students with special needs, and string instruments for a brand new middle school orchestra, to name just a few.
  • Distribute over 1,000 fully stocked backpacks to lower income students to ensure they start the school year with the supplies they need for success.
  • Expand our Art Changes visual arts program to feature more diverse local artists and art lessons so that students can experience representation while learning to express themselves through art. AEF continues to display hundreds of pieces of student art annually at locations throughout Alameda as part of our Art Across the Island program.
  • Provide after-school enrichment classes and summer camps to thousands of students to support their academic, emotional, and social growth.

None of this would have happened without you.  Your generous donation allows AEF to bridge the gap and enrich the educational experiences of so many Alameda public school students.
