Dear Friends,
Laura Hughes
Executive Director, PEF
This is the year to celebrate our students. They are curious,
resilient, creative, and full of potential—and it is our privilege to
support them every step of the way. At the heart of everything we
do is a simple yet powerful mission: putting students first.
As we look toward to the 2025–2026 school year, the Peninsula
Education Foundation is thrilled to offer a diverse array of
enrichment opportunities in science, the arts, music, and the
humanities. These programs empower students to explore their
passions, broaden their perspectives, and ignite their creativity.
Beyond enhancing academic learning, they foster innovation,
nurture self-confidence, and encourage students to dream big.
None of this would be possible without the incredible support
of our community. Parents, grandparents, friends, neighbors,
and local businesses all play a vital role in our shared success.
Your generosity reflects a common belief: that investing in our
students is investing in the future of our entire community.
Education unlocks the boundless potential within us all, and
classrooms serve as the ground where ideas and innovations
take root, shaping the world. Thank you for being a part
of this crucial work.
Here's to a school year filled with purpose, growth, and
inspiration — a time to learn, to connect, and to shine together.
With Gratitude,
Carlie Garber
Co-President
PEF Board of Trustees
