Cocoa Crawl
The GBEF is organizing a Cocoa Crawl to enhance Gresham’s Spirit of Christmas celebration on Saturday, November 24.
The Cocoa Crawl is a fun, family-friendly event where participants purchase a $10 commemorative mug and then sip, shop, and stroll through Historic Downtown Gresham and surrounding businesses for a few hours prior to the tree lighting at the Arts Plaza.
The Cocoa Crawl begins at 4 pm with the final sip stop at the tree lighting at 6 pm. More information to come as details are finalized.
Our Mission – Bringing GREAT Things to the Classroom
The Gresham-Barlow Education Foundation is dedicated to supporting every student in the Gresham-Barlow School District. We partner with our community to provide funding to foster innovative and engaging learning experiences and provide opportunities to ensure that every student has what they need to experience a world-competitive education.
Campaigns for Classrooms
The GBEF is supporting crowdfunding for our educators by adding a platform called FoundationGIVE to our website. It’s a GREAT way to mobilize your community in support of students.
If you have a project, program, field trip, or need an addition to your classroom, the GBEF has you covered. Unlike other crowdfunding platforms, this one allows 100% of donations to go to YOU and not to fees or subscription costs.
