Proceeds will support the nonprofit Silicon Valley Education Foundation, which brings award-winning STEM learning programs, like Elevate [Math] and the Computer Science Institute, to over 5,000 students per year. SVEF also provides essential training for teachers in under-resourced school districts. Gifts from donors keep programs free for students and affordable for school districts. Community support also allows SVEF to adapt quickly to students’ changing needs during the pandemic, including the pivot to distance/online learning.

Santa Clara County Office of Education is a sponsor of SVEF’s Digital Equity and Inclusion event. SCCOE is a champion of public education, serving as an exemplary regional resource to students, parents, school districts, community agencies, and businesses.
