FROM TK THROUGH GRADUATION, YOUR DONATIONS MATTERS

Due to a lack of state funding resulting from voter decisions in the 1980s, public schools now rely on money raised by education foundations like WCEF TK-12. 

​As frustrating as that can feel, we don't want you to worry about the education your child receives in our Walnut Creek schools. Foundations like ours allow families to invest in public education with tax-deductible donations and, ultimately, invest in our community.

Well-funded schools don't just create well-rounded, prepared graduates.
☞ Good schools connect our community, maintain property values, and produce the next generation of thoughtful, engaged leaders.
