The Greater Los Angeles Education Foundation (GLAEF) has announced a $12.75 million fund to benefit youth living in Inglewood, California.

The endowment will enable GLAEF to have a lasting impact in the lives of  youth by working directly with trusted community organizations and initiatives that serve the community by supporting a range of educational programs. As many as four organizations serving young people will be selected to receive a first-round grant by September 2024, and GLAEF is actively meeting with local residents and community organizations to develop a comprehensive grantmaking program addressing Inglewood children’s educational needs.

GLAEF is the philanthropic partner of the Los Angeles County Office of Education, the largest regional education agency in the nation.
