Supporting Mishawaka Students & Teachers
The Mishawaka Education Foundation (MEF) is committed to providing School City of Mishawaka educators and students with sustainable funding required to achieve extraordinary educational opportunities.
The MEF is a non-profit foundation that serves to bridge the gap in unpredictable and insufficient funding from our state government.
Founded in 1994, the Foundation has forged partnerships with local businesses, organizations, and individuals to raise funds for school projects or activities identified by school staff and administrators. Whether it’s financial assistance, gifts, or donations of time and effort, you can help the Mishawaka Education Foundation build a better future for the youth in our community.
