Renee Grubb, owner of Village Properties, created the Teacher’s Fund in 2002. She has happily announced that this year’s funding goal of $75,000 was met and surpassed, having raised over $100,000 from August 20 to September 20. The funding provides general classroom materials, STEM equipment, classroom organizational materials, art supplies, electronics and classroom furniture, among other items – for K12 teachers in schools from Santa Ynez to Carpinteria.
Drive committee co-chair and Village Properties realtor Brianna Johnson thanked the community and said, “These funds will help us continue our mission of supporting Santa Barbara teachers with much needed educational items to help students thrive.”
The Teacher’s Fund has donated more than $2.1 million to Santa Barbara-area schools.
