Education Foundation of Eagle County (EFEC) News
This fall, EFEC received an unprecedented 58 Classroom Grant applications totaling $98,395—over three times the number of applications for classroom supplies and resources normally received. Thanks to EFEC's supporters and a surprise donation, EFEC was able to fund $73,061—an increase of over $25,000 from past years!
While we at EFEC are incredibly grateful for this year’s increased funding, the need for resources in our classrooms is still greater than we can provide. That’s why we’ve created a way for you to contribute through our Raise the Grade Classroom Grants Marketplace. We hope you feel inspired to help! There, each "vote" for a specific project equals a donation. Fill your cart and donate towards the classroom needs of your choice!
Nearly every school in the district is represented! Type your school's abbreviation into the search bar (AES = Avon Elementary School, etc) and see what your school needs! Or "shop" by category, such as Math or Literacy.
A special thank you to Vail Resorts EPIC Promise for their continued support of our Classroom Grant fund and to Vail Health for funding E•ƒ(ec)’s STEM grants since 2012.
EFEC also sends its deepest thanks to our community's incredible teachers who continue to inspire and educate every day, and to all EFEC funders whose unwavering support makes this possible.
