 The Public Education Foundation of Evansville, Inc. will celebrate their 30th year of supporting public education in our community at the Otters baseball game on Wednesday, August 24, 2016.  Game time at historic Bosse Field is 6:35 p.m.

In keeping with the birthday theme, cupcakes and small party favors will be available to the first 800 attendees. There is also a birthday game the crowd can play, with a prize.

For 30 years, from an office at 100 NW Second St, Evansville, the PEF board of directors has provided thousands of students with professional-level, hands-on experience via direct support for its signature projects such as the House Building Project, Summer Musical, Missoula Children’s Theatre and academic team competitions.  Last year, PEF provided over $440,000 in program support, and direct teacher grants and student scholarships.

The Public Education Foundation is a private not-for-profit agency with a mission of “inspiring and rewarding student-centered innovation in public education,”  The PEF Board, supporters and staff believe that high quality public education is fundamental to the economic, cultural and civic health of our society.
