Be Part of the Decades of Impact Celebration

Join us on April 15, 2027 to party like it’s 1999.

Enjoy a flashback to the ‘90s featuring small plates, adult beverages, games, activities, sweet treats, and nostalgic experiences from 5:30 – 8 p.m. Experience our very own Blockbuster Video for the “HEF Time Show” - a feature presentation highlighting the innovative programs and opportunities taking place every day across more than 70 Henrico County Public Schools, many of which are made possible through community investment and partnership.

You will see HEF programs that create belonging, build core memories, prepare students for careers, develop essential skills, and provide experiences that might otherwise be out of reach. These are the kinds of opportunities your support helps make possible every day.

We will toast Henrico alumni from the 1990s whose contributions have made a lasting impact on our community.

Come and celebrate with us! Together, we can ensure these opportunities continue for the next generation of students and educators.

We can’t wait to see you.

Enjoy these moments from the 2026 Excellence in Education Celebration

HEF's Sixth Annual Excellence in Education Celebration would not have been possible without the generous support of our community. We are deeply grateful to our sponsors who continue to invest in Henrico County Public Schools and to every guest and donor who joined us. Your support helps turn ideas into opportunities for students across Henrico schools.

We also extend our sincere thanks to the students, teachers, and HCPS staff who shared their innovative learning experiences with our guests. Your dedication and creativity brought the purpose of the evening to life and reminded us all of what is possible when we dream big together.

We are thankful for a community that shows up, gives back, and believes in the potential of every learner.
