Ways to Donate
Suggested Donation Information
To sustain our programs, MVEF’s suggested donation is now $1,100 per student per year. This increase from 2023-24 reflects inflation, rising program and operational costs, and reduced corporate grant funding.
​
Every gift, no matter the size, helps fund vital programs and expand opportunities for all students. MVWSD is one of the most socioeconomically diverse districts in Santa Clara County, and families contribute over 80% of MVEF’s annual funding.
As donations grow, so do our ability to refine priorities and expand programs. Thank you for investing in our students and community!
