Ways To Help


The RCEF relies on members of the Redwood City community to help us raise vital funds through donations, business partnerships, merchant support, and in-kind giving. We also hold special fundraising and educational events throughout the year. This takes a lot of volunteer power and we can use all the help we can get! Every hour and every dollar our community contributes goes directly to programs that enrich our students' education.

Manage a Program

Grand Opening Fundraising Program

We need a volunteer with an entrepreneurial bent to set up and manage an on-going program. We have already had great success with Peet's Coffee and Chipotle's restaurant. With so many new businesses opening, we can capitalize on a great opportunity to bring our message to Redwood City and raise much-needed funds.
