MORAGA EDUCATION FOUNDATION

NEW: THE GAP
Campolindo receives $3,924 less per student than the average high school district in California.
MEF works to close that gap every year. Please make an investment in your student's education at Campolindo by giving to the MEF Giving Campaign.

NEW: WEEK OF GIVING — SEPTEMBER 7–13
This is one of the most exciting weeks of the year, when the whole Moraga community comes together in support of our schools! On Wednesday, September 9, look for students at morning drop-off — they'll be out there personally thanking you for investing in their education. It's a heartwarming reminder of exactly who benefits from your generosity. Don't miss it!

MAKE A DIFFERENCE AT CAMPO - BECOME AN MEF AMBASSADOR!
We’re looking for parents to join the MEF Ambassador Team. Ambassadors help share MEF’s story, connect our school community, and support the programs and resources that benefit every student. It’s a flexible volunteer opportunity designed for busy parents—just a few hours, a few times each year. Contact jessica@kitacorp.net.
