Mission Statement
East Palo Alto Academy Foundation (EPAAF) is the non-profit education foundation dedicated solely to East Palo Alto Academy (EPAA) and the college aspirations of EPAA graduates. East Palo Alto Academy, or EPAA, is a public, tuition-free charter high school in the Sequoia Union High School District that has prepared young people in East Palo Alto and the surrounding community to succeed since 2001.
About This Cause
East Palo Alto Academy Foundation supports EPAA: EPAAF enables EPAA to offer the small class sizes, intensive college preparation and other programs and services designed so that each student may graduate college-ready. The cost of these services and opportunities goes well beyond the limits of public funding, and they are critically important. East Palo Alto Academy Foundation supports EPAA graduates in college: The majority of EPAA graduates are the first in their families to graduate from high school and the first to attend college. Each year, EPAAF supports dozens of East Palo Alto Academy graduates in their quest for a college degree. Through its college scholarship program, EPAAF has awarded over $2.4 million since 2007, supporting 45 college students in 2017-18 alone. Thanks to EPAAF’s College Success Counselor, our first generation college students have the benefit of personal support and advice as they navigate their college journey.
