Give Hope & Cheer this coming year!

Our mission has always been to support Hayward classrooms. However, this year, during these chaotic times, we have have actively reached out to Hayward teachers to help them transition to distance teaching and to enable their students to be as engaged and successful as possible by giving them access to personal whiteboards and headphones, math and science kits, reading books, art supplies, and more. 

The Hayward Education Foundation has been supporting creative classroom projects in Hayward schools, public, private and charter, for thirty-seven years. Over $1,389,000 of donated monies have been distributed to 1,700 classrooms to support projects that enhance student skills in language arts, science, math, and the arts.

A year end donation from you would allow us to support more classrooms by providing additional resources to the K-12 students in the Hayward community.
