It’s Giving Tuesday, and HEF wants to say thank you!

93% of our impact is because of donors and partners like you!
We can’t do it without you – our HEF Heroes.

- HEF awarded $282,044 in Innovative Grants to 31 projects, impacting 20,541 students, teachers and parents.
- Our early learning programs address gaps in access to quality PreK programs and improved kindergarten readiness for more than 375 children.
- HEF’s Learning & Discovery afterschool program provides a wide variety of enrichment activities to support student achievement including coding and robotics.
