Ranked one of the top 50 Education Foundations.

Silicon Valley is one of the most forward-thinking regions in the world, setting the standard for innovation across industries. Yet, this is not always reflected in the performance in our schools. In the face of tight budgets, inconsistent resources, and an increasingly diverse population, more and more students are left unprepared to graduate college and expand their career options.

It is through our established legacy and strong partnerships with districts, educators, and the for-profit and nonprofit sectors, that Silicon Valley Education Foundation (SVEF) champions education solutions that inspire underserved students to succeed in college and careers. As the largest education nonprofit in Silicon Valley, SVEF is dedicated to raising student performance in the critical areas of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM).
