About Us
Falls Church City was founded on a commitment to quality education, and that commitment creates a strong bond among citizens, teachers, elected officials and businesses in our little city.
The Falls Church Education Foundation (FCEF) was created in 2004 as a 501(c)3 to raise, manage and distribute supplemental funds to enhance the educational experience of Falls Church City Public School (FCCPS) students.
The FCEF is staffed by three part-time employees—an Executive Director, Director of Development and Communications Coordinator—with an active volunteer board of directors. Fundraising occurs through three main activities: our Academic Boosters donations, our annual Run for the Schools and our annual Gala & Auction. We have recently added The Little City Scramble golf tournament, which is coordinated with the Mustang Athletic Boosters, and the bi-annual Falls Church Home & Garden Tour.
During the 2023-24 academic school year, FCEF awarded $271,000 to FCCPS and an additional $100,000 in scholarships to local students. Giving is aligned with the three FCCPS pillars: equity of access, staff readiness and preparing students to function in the 21st century.
FCEF celebrated its 20th year of service in 2024. We commemorated this milestone by sharing the many ways we've impacted the schools and community over the years. Check out our Annual Impact Report to learn more.
