A Donation to MEF is a Donation to JM

 

The recommended annual donation to the Moraga Education Foundation is $1,500 per student, but we know that every family’s situation is different, and ALL DONATIONS of any amount make a difference at JM.  What is important is that you participate in the Giving Campaign at a level that is meaningful to your family.

HOW DO I DONATE?

There are many ways to donate:

WHAT IS THE MORAGA EDUCATION FOUNDATION?

Moraga Education Foundation (MEF) is the primary fundraising organization for all Moraga public school students TK-12th grade, including JMIS. MEF's mission is to raise funds to bridge the gap between state education funding and the real cost of educating our children. 

WHY SHOULD I DONATE?

Many people think that because of our high property values, we have well-funded schools. But that isn’t the case. California ranks 32nd in per-pupil funding and Moraga is actually one of the lowest-funded districts in the state. State funding only covers the basics; excellent public schools in Moraga are possible because of your donations to MEF.

WHERE DOES THE MONEY GO? 

This year, MEF granted $2.55M to the Moraga schools.  These grants make a significant impact on the quality of education your child receives.  At JM, your donations to MEF fund: 

  • STEM Electives
  • Science Supplies
  • Science Classroom Upgrades
  • Art Teachers
  • Counselors
  • Student Support Services
  • Wellness Center Intake Specialist
  • Librarian
  • Library Books and Supplies
  • Music Teacher
  • Department Supplies
  • Writing Aides

These programs would not be possible without your support - thank you!
