Let’s KEEP Their Education Growing!
Our public schools are vital to the health and success of our mountain community. Thanks to the community’s amazing support, we are now looking towards building a stronger future for our schools, investing in key programs such as art, science, counseling, Spanish, library, math intervention and restoring a 12th teacher at Loma to help alleviate class sizes next school year.
Loma Public Education Fund (LPEF) is a volunteer-driven charitable organization that raises funds to augment critical programs and services at Loma Elementary and C.T. English Middle School. KEEP is our annual direct giving campaign aimed at closing the funding gap for the following school year. Government funding is not enough.
Build stronger mountain schools, donate to LPEF.
Cash gifts may be made:
- Through this Causevox campaign
- Via PayPal through LPEF's website
- Through your employer's Benevity site for corporate matching, if available (search for "Loma Public Education Fund")
- By check payable to "LPEF" mailed to 23800 Summit Road, Los Gatos, CA 95033
If you are interested in donating financial instruments such as stocks or bonds, please contact our Treasurer at [email protected].
All gifts are important to us and will have an impact. Current Loma and C.T. English families are asked to give a family donation of $1,500 or a single child donation of $1,000.
If you are able to give more, the Leadership Circle starts at $2,500. Members of the Leadership Circle are recognized for demonstrating a level of generosity that is transformative, by personally donating or raising $2,500 or more during the fiscal year to LPEF's annual fund.
We are grateful for DONORS and VOLUNTEERS!
Any contribution of money or time is very much appreciated. If you are interested in volunteering on the KEEP campaign or for one of our upcoming events, please contact us at [email protected].
