Brookfield, WI –Thursday, August 8, 2024 – The Elmbrook Education Foundation welcomes five new members to join their Board of Directors. These members will continue the mission of enriching our school district and community by investing in our students and educators through grants, scholarships, and other major initiatives.
“As our foundation grows, we are pleased to welcome outstanding members who will make an impact on the students and staff of Elmbrook! I am so grateful for the continued support and enthusiasm of our Board of Directors,” said Beth Dobrzynski, EEF Executive Director.
Joining the EEF board for a three-year term are Katrina Hergott, Kelli Kauzlarich, Brian Kawa, Lynn Olberding, and Jennifer Prom. All bring various talents to help the foundation continue to grow.
EEF was organized in 1958 to award scholarships to select Brookfield High School graduates. In 1999, the Foundation’s mission expanded to include teacher grants for innovative projects that benefit all students and raise money to support and strengthen outstanding learning ideas that improve the overall educational quality of our public schools. EEF has awarded over $1,700,000 in scholarships and over $845,000 in grants which enhance and extend the established curriculum and support projects that are beyond the district’s budget.
