We take education to new heights by piloting, nurturing, and sponsoring STEAM programs in our schools
PEF got not 1, but 2 nice surprises today. 2 separate vehicle donations came in through CARS, listing PEF as the beneficiary. THANK YOU for your donation!
If you would like to donate an old vehicle (working or not) it's quick and painless. You can even donate a relatives car from another state. It's a nice service to get those old cars out of the garage!
CARS does the majority of the work. The intake link can be found on the Pacific Education Foundation site. You get a tax deduction, and PEF gets some funds that go towards your childs education.
VEHICLE DONATIONS | PacificaEdFoundation Charitable Adult Rides & Services (CARS) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit social enterprise owned by a nonprofit supporting only nonprofits through vehicle donations. All vehicles are considered! We strive to accept all types of donated vehicles (running or not) including cars, trucks, trailers, boats, ...
Hey hey! If you already renewed your PEF membership, check your mailbox. The cards and decals are here! This will be the last of the physical cards. Our next roll out will be digital membership cards.
For those that still need to renew WAIT! We are opening memberships in November during donation days. More to come!
And as always, THANK YOU for supporting your kids education!
Greetings, PEF Supporters! We hope everyone had a great summer.
As we kick-off this new school year, we at PEF are excited to share that we have openings for volunteers interested in supporting music, art and science education across our district.
We are actively seeking a Treasurer, as well ambassador liaisons to Vallemar and Ortega, among other roles. You can find more information about these and other opportunities in the volunteer section of our website.
VOLUNTEER | PacificaEdFoundation PEF is a volunteer-driven, non-profit organization that helps create rich and inspiring education opportunities for all the students in the Pacifica School District. Whether you work outside or inside the home, whether you are a parent, community member or business person PEF has meaningful opportun...
As many of you all know, Mark Unbehagen is retiring after eleven wonderful years of bringing music education to Pacifica schools.
We recently came across this wonderful video from Mr. U’s launch of the music program for Grades 3 through 5 in 2017 and wanted to share it as a tribute to the work that he has done across the district.
PEF is grateful to Mr. U for educating our children over the years. We cannot thank him enough for his leadership, support, and advocacy to ensure music programming has been a priority for PSD students.
We will miss you, Mr. U!
We wanted to share a quick update to let you know that PEF’s annual Donation Days (historically held in May) are being pushed out closer to the end of the calendar year to provide some space between Donation Days and the annual PEF Gala in March. We will send out more information on Donation Days after the new school year starts.
For now, do not let your membership lapse. Renew (or join!) today so that you can continue to access the PEF perks offered by our local business partners.

Note that all renewals or new memberships occurring between May 1st and our next Donation Days campaign event WILL count towards individual school goals during the Donation Days campaign.
Last week, the IBL and OSS mixed 6th grade Beginning Band, the Jazz Band and the 7th and 8th grade Advanced Band led by Band Director Ben Gower performed their spring concert at IBL. Congrats to the musicians for their stellar performances, and thanks to all of PEF’s supporters who make our TK through 8th grade music programs possible.
Thank you to the City of Pacifica Parks and Rec and to the Pacifica Lions Club for putting on the Pacifica Junior Olympics at Terra Nova High School this past week. Each school brought so much enthusiasm and pride! Congrats to all of the participants who competed and to the medal winners who placed in the top 6 for each event.
Today is the last day of Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week in the Pacifica School District. From sidewalk chalk messages of support to special lunches to colorful bouquets, students and their families let our teachers and staff know how much they mean to them.
We at PEF want to add our tremendous appreciation as well! Thank you, Teachers and Staff!
What a wonderful evening celebrating the 2024 Elna Flynn Outstanding School Volunteers at Nick’s!
