Mission

Ewing Public Education Foundation (EPEF) is an independent, non-profit citizen’s organization dedicated to providing innovative educational experiences for students and the community of Ewing Township. EPEF continues its tradition of providing grants to Ewing Public Schools for innovative educational programs. Established in 1995, EPEF is an independent, not-for-profit citizens’ organization whose mission is to mobilize community support, concern, commitment and resources to help improve the quality of education in Ewing Township. EPEF provides grants to The Ewing Public Schools for innovative educational programs through fund-raising, and corporate and institutional sponsorship. The grants recognize the need for innovative educational opportunities in a variety of areas and the creativity of our educators in meeting these needs.

EPEF, a founding member of the New Jersey Education Foundation Partnership, also seeks to match corporate and organizational donors to fund additional projects of mutual interest. The foundation is a member of the MID Jersey Chamber of Commerce as it expands its outreach to the business community and includes the following organizations as corporate partners: Educational Testing Service, Credit Union of New Jersey, New Jersey Manufacturers, American Properties, Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Hopewell Valley Bank and many other local organizations.

EPEF’s continued success depends upon broad-based corporate and community support. Such support will allow EPEF to broaden its support of innovative educational enhancements that further develop effective and creative critical thinking and enable our children to become dedicated citizens and inspired leaders in our community. Support from parents, educators, alumni and friends is crucial to the ongoing success of EPEF’s endeavors.

Our mission is to mobilize community support, concern, commitment and resources to help improve the quality of education in Ewing Township. EPEF is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. See our BROCHURE for more details.
