AEF distributed over 4,000 books to all of our kindergarten through third grade classes. It is always exciting to witness the smiles of children when they select a new book to take home and keep in their growing home libraries. Over the past decade, AEF has distributed over 50,000 books to our students in the District and we look forward to providing more books. I would like to thank our partners who have helped us in the past, Reading Is Fundamental (RIF) and the Pasadena Tournament of Roses Association.
This has been an extraordinary year for AEF with all of the programs and funding we have been involved with. This past year we partnered with the Pasadena Showcase House, Citadel Shopping Extravaganza, Alhambra Pumpkin Run, Alhambra Downtown Business Association, Alhambra Chamber of Commerce, AYSO Region 60 Alhambra/Monterey Park, Alhambra Firefighters Association, Alhambra Teachers Association, City of Alhambra, City of Monterey Park, Alhambra Council PTA, and of course, our own Alhambra USD to ensure we enrich the lives of our students. I cannot thank all of our partners enough for your support and commitment.
On behalf of the AEF Board of Directors, I want to thank the community for your continued support of AEF, AUSD, and our students. Together, we make living in Alhambra, Monterey Park, San Gabriel, Rosemead, and South San Gabriel a better place. Great Schools Make Great Communities!
Have a happy and safe holiday with your family. See you all in 2024!
