with Educational Resources

URGENT Call to Action
for Our Community

The landscape of education is shifting rapidly. Recent decisions and executive orders are leading to significant changes in how education is funded and supported. These shifts threaten to destabilize resources for students, families, and educators—especially in communities like Oakland, where public education serves as a lifeline.

In response, the Oakland Public Education Fund has established The POWER Fund—Providing Oakland with Educational Resources—to ensure our schools and students remain resilient in the face of uncertainty.
