This Giving Tuesday, Give to Burlingame Schools
Updated: 16 hours ago
On December 1, help BCE raise $100,000 to support students across all seven Burlingame School District schools.
Every student deserves access to a well-rounded education, and community support helps make that possible. This Giving Tuesday, join families, donors, volunteers and local businesses in supporting the programs that enrich the school experience for students throughout Burlingame.
OUR 2026 GIVING TUESDAY GOAL:
$100,000
Your Gift Makes a Difference at Every School
This year, BCE awarded a record-breaking $3.21 million grant to the Burlingame School District, funding 20 staff positions across the district's seven schools. From BIS to Washington, every school benefits from BCE support.
Your generosity helps make possible:
Music and the arts that encourage creativity and self-expression.
Physical education that promotes movement, teamwork and well-being.
World language instruction that broadens students' understanding of the world.
Academic intervention that provides additional support when students need it.
These programs are not simply extras. While they may not be required components covered by basic public school funding, they are an important part of the rich, well-rounded educational experience families value.
Make Your Gift Go Even Further
Does your employer offer a matching gift program?
Many companies match charitable contributions made by their employees, and some offer special matching benefits during Giving Tuesday. That means your gift to BCE could have twice the impact, or potentially even more!
Matching benefits vary by employer and may change from year to year. Check with your company for current eligibility and details.
Why Giving Tuesday Matters
The Burlingame School District has the lowest per-student funding of any district on the Peninsula. Community support helps bridge the gap between the resources available through public funding and the programs that make our schools exceptional.BCE brings families, donors, volunteers, local businesses and school communities together to help fill that gap. Every contribution, at every level, helps sustain programs that reach students across the district. Whether you're making your first gift or continuing a tradition of support, Giving Tuesday is an opportunity to make a difference for students at every Burlingame school.
Help Us Reach $100,000
Our goal is to raise $100,000 during our Giving Tuesday Text-a-thon to support the programs and educators that make a difference in students' lives every day.
Donate early and help save our volunteers time on Giving Tuesday! Every gift counts. Together, we can help ensure that students across all seven Burlingame schools have access to the opportunities and experiences that make a great education. Thank you for being part of the community that supports Burlingame public schools!
