My Appeal
In 2013, the Pleasanton Partnerships in Education Foundation (PPIE) held the first "Pleasanton Run for Education," and in just a few short years, the event has become Pleasanton's premier family-focused fitness fundraiser.
To date, the event has raised over $700,000 for Pleasanton schools. In 2019 alone, thanks to the generous support of our community, volunteers and participants, the event netted over $115,000.

My Cause
The Mission: Pleasanton Partnerships in Education Foundation, a community-based organization, exists to enhance learning experiences for students of the Pleasanton Unified School District through a partnership of business, education and the community.
About the Organization:
PPIE is a non-profit, 501(c)3 foundation that supports all schools in the Pleasanton Unified School District. Since 1987, PPIE has raised over $5 million dollars for our schools through corporate partner donations, special events, and community-based fundraising efforts. Funds raised by PPIE support and re-establish critical district-wide programs for students threatened in recent years by state budget cuts, and to fund projects enhancing educational excellence for all students.
In the 2018/2019 school year, PPIE contributed $711,000 for our district’s schools, which was used to hire a new ‘wellness’ director for the school district, reading and math intervention specialists for all levels, support counselors, IT support, INSPIRE grants for teacher- and student-led STEAM projects, and bus transportation for elementary Outdoor Education.
