WHAT WE DO

Due to the lack of state and national funding of our local schools, many important programs were forced to shut down or minimized throughout our District. At the Glendale Educational Foundation, we work with many facets of our community to bridge this funding gap.

Our Teacher and Student Grant Programs fund the following categories

  • Visual and Performing Arts
  • Science and Technology
  • Health and Fitness

Your financial support enriches the lives of every student in every school. We are proud to say that we offer the resources that our students need to stay on the cutting edge of learning, preparing them for the future. GEF has been bridging the gap since 2005.

The Glendale Unified School District includes Glendale, La Crescenta, Montrose and part of La Canada-Flintridge. Our educational foundation supports a dynamic District that is rich in cultural diversity and is recognized as a leader in dual immersion language programs. We boast 26 schools that have been honored as California Distinguished Schools, nine of them receiving national Blue Ribbon Status.
