HEF’s quarterly newsletter – September 2023
Read the September edition of HEF's quarterly newsletter! We'll show you how education foundations can play meaningful roles in the development and implementation of high-quality programming for our community's children.
In celebration of HEF’s 30th Anniversary we’re holding charity prize draws in the months with 30 days. Your gifts during these months enter you in drawings for exciting prizes donated by Henrico County Public Schools teachers and students, and our local business partners. You could win two dozen cookies made by culinary students, pet grooming by veterinary sciences students, a one-month membership at ACAC Fitness in Short Pump, or an oil change by one of our favorite local Midas of Richmond shops! Our charity prize draws allow you to donate to a worthwhile cause - Henrico students – and enter to win great prizes!
