About Edina Education Fund

The Edina Education Fund (EEF) is an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit partner of Edina Public Schools that has raised and stewarded private funds for district-wide programs, classroom innovation grants, scholarships and student supports since the mid-1990s. The organization concentrates its giving on literacy (including science-of-reading initiatives), mental health and wellness, STEAM programming, and fiscal sponsorship of student activities. EEF is an active, donor-facing charity that files annual Form 990s and reports multi‑year fundraising and grantmaking activity in recent filings.

Notable achievements

Recent fundraising and allocations

In the most recently reported fiscal year EEF raised in the mid‑hundreds of thousands (reported fundraising around $384,000 in the latest public summary) and allocated those funds to district priorities, including a significant share for literacy work, mental‑health supports and graduating senior scholarships.

Sustained support for literacy programming

EEF has provided multi‑year funding to district literacy initiatives — including support tied to the district's science-of-reading efforts and funding for roles and materials that enable classroom and student-level literacy interventions.

Ongoing Innovation Grants and scholarships

The fund regularly awards Innovation Grants for classroom pilots and funds scholarships and benevolence support for students; recent years included targeted scholarship awards and allocations for student therapy/mental‑health benevolence.
