MUSD Annual Grant

The Milpitas Community Education Foundation (MCEF) is pleased to introduce the MUSD annual grant. This grant is from the distributions of the endowment, which has reached $100,000 in December of 2018. At that point, it was established that MCEF intends to provide an annual grant of 5% of this amount. Fundraising will continue and in early 2019, the board has set an ambitious goal of doubling the endowment to $200,000 by June 2024. Upon reaching the new goal, the board will reconvene to review increasing the amount of the grant to equal the 5% distribution target.

Upon review of the status and performance of the endowment, MCEF is proud and excited to announce that $5,000 is available for the annual MUSD grant to be distributed in October 2023.
