As the largest education nonprofit in Silicon Valley, SV[e]F is committed to delivering and advocating for high-quality STEM education that inspires and prepares students furthest from access and opportunity for college and careers. For over 25 years, SV[e]F has partnered with schools, districts, and educators to expand learning opportunities that drive academic growth and long-term upward mobility.


Through programs like Elevate [Math], [Computer Science] Innovate, the Eastside Education Initiative, STEM Leadership Institute, ASSETs, and School2Home, we equip students with the tools to succeed in a twenty-first century workforce while creating inclusive pathways to innovation.


Our annual fundraiser, DreamMakers, fuels this mission by raising essential funds that sustain and grow these student-centered programs. The event brings together educators, industry leaders, and community champions to celebrate our Teachers, Students, College Mentors, and District Partner of the Year, while sharing powerful stories of resilience, achievement, and impact.
