The Piedmont Education Foundation kicked off the 2025-2026 Giving Campaign on Tuesday morning, rallying purple-clad parents and educators in front of each school site to highlight the important cause.
The Giving Campaign is PEF’s largest fundraising effort. Last year PEF donated over $4 million to the Piedmont Unified School District to help bolster district funds. “94% of this money goes to teacher salaries,” said Campaign co-chair Kim Hunter at the Sept. 10 Board of Education meeting when PEF presented last year’s check to the district.
There’s no need to wait to support the schools — you can make a donation today HERE.
