SMEF Liaisons
“Liaisons are the bridge between school communities and the Ed Foundation, helping ignite and inspire generosity into life-changing opportunities for students.”

Ed Foundation Liaisons: Connecting Schools, PTAs, and the Community
Ed Foundation Liaisons play an essential role in strengthening the connection between the Santa Monica Education Foundation and each school community. They work closely with PTA leadership to coordinate messaging and activities ensuring every family understands the impact of the PTA and Ed Foundation working together. SMEF Liaisons play a vital role in turning awareness into the support that benefits all Santa Monica students.
These dedicated volunteers ensure the Ed Foundation’s mission is visible at school and community events, help share stories about its impact, and assist with fundraising campaigns. By building awareness and encouraging participation, Liaisons help generate the resources that fund vital programs—benefiting every student in every Santa Monica public school.
