SEF has granted $102,000 this school year!

2022-23 SEF School Grants: $102k

SEF helps fulfill student enrichment needs and wishes on every campus in Sunnyvale School District with school-specific grants. In the fall, 2022-2023 SEF awarded $102,000 in funding to support after-school enrichment, arts and music, JEDI (justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion) resources, learning experiences (field trips, assemblies), outdoor classroom or garden spaces, STEM (science, technology, engineering, math), and whole child wellness programs and resources.

Field trip support continues to be the most popular request from our schools, and SEF is proud to be able to help create more opportunities for students to get out and explore.

The various activities and resources funded by SEF school grants substantially benefit families and students who are socio-economically disadvantaged as well as English Language Learners, according to grantees.

According to school principals, 75% of the activities and resources SEF school grants support this school year would likely not have been possible without SEF’s support.

Heading to the Exploratorium!

Apr 10, 2018

The Exploratorium is a very cool place. You get to learn so much about science and play around with things that happen in the real world. It’s amazing that it all helps you learn!

We were super-happy to help San Miguel make this field trip possible for their students. They got to discover a new, neat place and learn about science while they were there. Thanks to everyone who donated who helped make this possible.

Thanks to Google!

We’d like to thank Google for donating $10,000 to help fund field trips across Sunnyvale School District next school year! We’re excited to bring more field trips for many of the students. This is a pain point across the district that we’re happy to help solve.

We’re getting there!

A HUGE thanks to everyone who has donated to help pay for a 5th grader to go to science camp! Thanks to people like you, we are 70% of the way to our goal of raising $5000 by May 24th. Seventy percent! This is great.

Thanks to Synopsys, who donated as well. They’re a wonderful community partner!

You can make a difference by donating today! Some Sunnyvale schools are still raising money to send their students to science camp, even though they’ve already attended. Your $100 donation could become $300 – $100 from you, $100 from SEF, and, if your employer does corporate matching, $100 from them! Every dollar you donate now will free another dollar for other school needs, like classroom supplies and teacher training.

Thank you for your generous support. We couldn’t do this without you!
