About us
Who we are and why you should help
The Longmeadow Educational Excellence Foundation (LEEF) is a non-profit organization founded by a group of dedicated parents in 2001. LEEF is both a fundraising organization and a grant-making organization, comprised of volunteers from our community who share a common passion for extraordinary public school education. We conduct fundraising events throughout the year. Funds raised through our efforts are then awarded for innovative programs and projects proposed by teachers in formal grant submissions. Support from the entire community is critical to LEEF's success. Please consider supporting LEEF with your time, your talent, or with a monetary donation.
Our Mission
At LEEF, our mission is to create and maintain a fund for the benefit of Longmeadow Public School students. This fund provides grants, beyond the tax-supported budget, for innovative education and enrichment programs. LEEF is an autonomous, established institution that not only strives to ensure the excellence of Longmeadow Public Schools but also to instill a sense of equity and pride within the community.
