HEF in the Community
Excellence in Education Celebration
Our Sixth Annual Excellence in Education Celebration was an inspiring evening that highlighted the HEF funding that supports students, staff, and teachers across Henrico County Public Schools. Each featured grant gave sponsors a closer look at the goals behind the work, the challenges faced, and the successes achieved.
These meaningful connections between our sponsors and HEF grant recipients were both powerful and lasting. We are deeply grateful to our guests, HCPS students and staff, and our generous business sponsors whose support made this event possible.
