About RBEF

We Are The
Redondo Beach Educational Foundation

Our History

Established in 1991 by a group of concerned parents and community leaders who realized that an excellent school system could not rely on state funding alone, RBEF raises money through its annual Investor Drive, Business Partnerships and special events. We believe the best opportunities come from raising the most well-rounded children, and we support whole child development for all students in our Redondo Public schools from their first day of Kindergarten to their last day of High School.

Our Mission

The Redondo Beach Educational Foundation (RBEF) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose mission is to inspire our community to invest in Redondo Beach public schools so that every student can develop knowledge and skills that go beyond what public funding alone would achieve.

Our Vision

RBEF proudly and efficiently raises money for the Redondo Beach Unified School District, allowing them to focus on the educational, social, emotional and physical well-being of every student.

Our Values

Integrity: Everything we do will be upheld to the highest ethical standards and best practices of nonprofits.
Transparency: We will strive for honest and open communication with our community partners.
Inclusive: Through collaboration with our entire community we can multiply the effects of our contributions.
Gratitude: We are equally grateful for the gifts and talents given by those before us and for the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of our Redondo Beach public school students.

“RBUSD . Realizing Passion and Purpose. Maximizing Success and Significance. With partnerships, such as the Redondo Beach Educational Foundation, this vision can become a reality for RBUSD students. Thank you, RBEF, for providing value-added opportunities for RBUSD students!”

— Dr. Nicole Wesley, RBUSD Superintendent
