The Redwood City Education Foundation (RCEF) is a community-based organization that provides financial support, targeted advocacy, and meaningful community engagement to address systemic inequities and help all students thrive. Our mission is to increase the academic performance of underserved K-8 public school students by addressing social-emotional resilience, mental health, and academic readiness.
A Focus on Equity
School districts in San Mateo County receive very different levels of funding. Some neighboring communities have more than 2x the resources for public education as the Redwood City School District. These inequities make it more challenging for our district to retain quality teachers and create the very best conditions for learning.
You help close the gap between our district's resources and the actual cost of educating our students.
