WE Foundation for Education

Our Mission and Purpose

The mission of the West Essex Foundation for Education is to enhance the quality of education in the West Essex Regional School District by providing financial support for innovative programs that enrich student achievement and promote excellence in education.

WEFE facilitates events, activities and fundraisers to help provide financial contributions towards innovative programs that enrich student achievement and promote excellence in education. All funds raised go to the West Essex Regional School District in the form of grants to departments and teachers to encourage and recognize new approaches to education and supplement resources already provided by the district. Any West Essex Regional School District educator, counselor, librarian and nurse may apply for a grant individually or in collaboration with their grade levels, subject areas, disciplines, and/or school as a whole.

"The West Essex Foundation for Education is grateful for the generous support from families, organizations and businesses in our community that help make these grants possible," said Michielle Kupferberg, President of the West Essex Foundation for Education. "We look forward to planning additional programs that can help the district gain access to the most advanced learning tools and resources available."
