THANK YOU to the 496 Gunn families (30% of all Gunn families) that contributed to the PiE High School fund between last August and January 29th.

The Palo Alto Partners in Education School Campaign finished on January 29th. This year’s campaign results set new records for PiE, enabling us to donate $2.9 million to the 17 Palo Alto public schools. Donations from Gunn families also achieved a new record with 30% of Gunn families donating to Partners in Education. Our sincere thanks to the Gunn community and families for their overwhelming generosity – every dollar will make a difference at Gunn in 2010-11.
