Enriching the lives of Pendleton students since 1985
The purpose of the Education Foundation of Pendleton is to encourage and support curriculum enrichment, supplemental learning experiences, and other projects which may be deemed necessary and timely for the benefit of students in the Pendleton School District 16R. Through its work, the Foundation promotes public awareness and seeks to broaden the support of the community for its public schools. Funds for professional development are not a priority but may be considered.
The foundation is a 501c(3), domestic non-profit corporation. Its purpose is to promote, facilitate and carry out academic endeavors aimed at enriching the student experience in the Pendleton School District.
Education Foundation Events
The success of the Education Foundation of Pendleton is built on community donations and teachers creating experiences for their students by submitting grant requests to our foundation.
In 2015, the Education Foundation of Pendleton started an annual fundraiser, Grillin’ for Grants, allowing us to raise additional money to fund more grants each year. We are grateful for our faithful donors throughout the year, as well as those who support and attend the fundraiser each fall.
Requests for grants always exceed available funds, so there is a continual need to raise awareness and money. We hope you can join us at one of our events in support of Pendleton students and teachers.
Looking to Donate to the EFP?
The Education Foundation of Pendleton wishes to thank all individuals who have made donations in the past. The EFP could not serve the Pendleton students without such support. The EFP invests donated monies. Earnings from that endowment are used to fund grants twice each year to qualifying applicants.
