2. We eagerly support educational projects that test or implement innovate methods of teaching.
​
3. As a community-based Education Fund, we have the flexibility to support one-time, exceptional programs. For example, the Education Fund provided a $35,000 grant to complete the YMCA capital campaign to install playground equipment at their preschool, serving children and families for the next 20 years! The Education Fund assisted the Crescenta Valley High School Music Department by providing an $18,000 grant to replace the entire drum section of the Band. This was critical to providing a synchronized sound and to doing their best in community programs and competitions throughout the state.
​
4. All members of the Board of Advisors are volunteers who believe so strongly in the Education Fund that they donate their time and financial support. All make annual financial gifts to the Education Fund.
5. We communicate with our donors by email, newsletters and our website so that everyone may know the many ways donations are working to help our community.
​
6. The Education Fund is a Donor Advised Fund of the Community Foundation of the Verdugos, a non-profit, 501(c)(3)organization. This means that 100% of your donation is tax deductible!​​
​
7. A donation to the Education Fund will make you feel good, knowing that you are supporting a better world!
