DESEF Annual Fund Drive
💙 Welcome to DESEF! 💙
Who Are We?
The Disney Elementary School Education Foundation (DESEF) is a nonprofit organization powered entirely by parent volunteers who are passionate about making Walt Disney Elementary an incredible place for every student to learn, grow, and thrive.
Everything we do—from fundraising events to community programs—is focused on one goal: giving our students opportunities that go beyond what traditional school funding can provide.
When you support DESEF, you're investing directly in your child's education and helping create the exceptional school experience that makes Walt Disney Elementary so special.
Where Does Your Donation Go?
Did you know that the San Ramon Valley Unified School District is one of the lowest-funded unified school districts in California?
That means many of the programs our students enjoy simply wouldn't exist without the generosity of our families.
Your donation helps bridge the gap between district funding and what our students truly deserve.
This year, DESEF is proudly funding:
📚 Weekly library time for every classroom
👩🏫 Paraprofessionals and classroom support
🔬 STEM learning opportunities
💙 Social-emotional learning programs
🎶 TK–5 Music Program
🧪 Science Night & educational assemblies
📖 Dragon Academy intervention programs
🍎 Teacher & classroom grants
🎉 Recess enrichment activities
✨ ...and so much more!
Every dollar raised stays at Walt Disney Elementary and directly benefits our students and teachers.
🌟 How Can You Help?
Our Annual Fund Drive is the single most important fundraiser of the school year, providing the financial foundation for nearly everything DESEF supports.
🎯 Our Goal: $100,000 by September 15, 2026
We invite every family to participate. Our suggested contribution is:
💙 $500 per student
Every family is different, and every donation—regardless of size—makes a difference. Please give what feels right for your family.
