The Pleasant Valley Education Foundation (PVEF) is a non-profit 501c3 organization where businesses, schools, educators, parents and community volunteers come together to advance hands-on opportunities in the arts and technology for Camarillo K-8 public school students.

Let’s face it, public education is free but a quality education is not. Education budgets are slim and getting slimmer each year. Sure, individual schools in affluent areas can tap parents for extra funding. But our community’s aspirations for a better future require broad-based public support for all of our children.

PVEF serves all of the public schools in Camarillo, ensuring that high-quality programs are available to all of our kids. PVEF has a history of supporting those hands-on programs that have been proven to enhance and accelerate crucial skills for the 21st Century, preparing our kids for lifelong success.
