Since 1983, the Manhattan Beach Education Foundation has served as the primary method for local families to bring necessary funding to our schools. In 2014, the MBEF and the MBEF Endowment Fund developed a Strategic Plan to establish the organizational goals of MBEF and the Endowment. The Plan was developed collaboratively with broad involvement and guidance from the MBEF and Endowment Board of Directors and Staff and re-established the Foundation’s mission, core values and organizational priorities. The Foundation periodically reviews the established Strategic Plan to ensure its continued viability for navigating the Foundation’s strategic direction. The most recent updates were approved in March 2023. View the Strategic Plan.
