The Red Apple Program is a meaningful way for parents and students to show their appreciation to a teacher or staff member through a gift to the Wellesley Education Foundation in their name. Over the past 10 years, thanks to the generosity of Wellesley parents, WEF has funded grants totaling over $2.3 million. Your donation supports grants to educators in the Wellesley Public Schools to explore new instructional methods and to implement valuable enrichment programs for students. Like all donations to WEF, your contribution is tax-deductible.

​

You may honor up to 10 staff members with a single donation (donations are not charged per staff member, and there is no minimum donation amount). Your honoree(s) will receive a Red Apple thank you e-card that includes your child’s name (but not the amount of your gift). When you give a Red Apple gift, you are paying tribute to your child’s teacher(s) while simultaneously supporting innovative educational programs.
