Ways to give

Every gift reaches a classroom. Choose the way that works for you.

Because our endowment covers PAFE’s overhead, 100% of your donation goes to teacher grants, early literacy and district-identified initiatives.

Monthly giving

Join the [Classroom Circle]

Our monthly donors are the steadiest support our teachers have. Even $15 a month adds up over a year.

  • More grants approved. Predictable funding lets us say yes to more teacher requests each spring.
  • A quarterly update. Photos and stories from the classrooms you helped fund.
  • Flexible. Change or cancel anytime. Every gift is tax-deductible.
