Who We Are
Our Mission
The Rockville Centre Education Foundation's mission is to enhance the quality of public education by securing and providing financial resources for school enrichment.
The Foundation fosters innovation in our classrooms—focusing on those programs that reach beyond the normal scope of the curriculum.
About Us
Founded in 1991, the Rockville Centre Education Foundation is an independent, volunteer-led nonprofit with a long history of investing in our public schools. For more than three decades, RVCEF has helped turn promising ideas into lasting benefits for students.
What We Do
RVCEF raises funds and awards grants to teachers and administrators across the district. Each proposal is carefully reviewed, with funding directed toward projects that offer meaningful benefits to students in grades K–12.
Why We Matter
Rockville Centre takes pride in its excellent public schools. RVCEF gives our community a way to build on that strength, making investments that would otherwise fall outside the district's regular budget.
