(Labor Day – 12/31/18)
We invite all parents to participate in the Fall Drive every year, while BCE volunteers educate our community about BCE’s mission and the positive impact our grant makes on every child in the district. The sooner and more accurately BCE forecasts donations from our parent donor base, the more volunteer resources we can focus on non-parent sources of funding.
Donations made during the Fall Drive or anytime throughout the year count towards a family’s annual campaign donation.

BCE Grant
FUNDS AT WORK:
Visual and Performing Arts (VAPA)
If you still think of the arts as a "nice to have" and not a "must have", think again. Arts integration is increasingly linked to across the board achievement and retention increases, and found to have tremendous importance in the kinds of skills needed for the future:
2020 BCE Grant:
CA funding for education ranks 38th in the nation, which is why BCE works hard every year to fill the gap in state funding and provide Burlingame School District with much needed incremental funds. This year's Grant Letter to see, dollar for dollar, how this year's grant will be spent in our schools is found below.
Double or Triple Your Impact!
Many employers will match your charitable gifts to BCE.
Almost $500K (about 20%) of our annual grant comes from matching funds!
Matching funds count toward your family's annual giving level.
Don't forget to request your match before 2021 comes to a close.
