“Hi, my name is Sam. I am a high school volunteer for the Beaverton Education Foundation. This is our 25th year supporting Beaverton teachers and students – I am calling tonight to ask for your support of BEF’s efforts to fund a variety of programs designed to help all Beaverton students achieve their brightest future.”
For six nights in October, 250 student volunteers from all high schools throughout Beaverton asked our community to Answer the Call – and support hands-on, innovative programs and projects that reach all Beaverton’s 39,000 students.
“Schools transformed into mobile call centers filled with students asking our community to support programs — from band camp and summer reading to career technical exploration and after school support — that make them and their peers excited about coming to school,” explained Kristine Baggett, BEF Executive Director.
Answer the Call donations were generously matched by long-standing partners, First Tech Federal Credit Union and OnPoint Community Credit Union.
Additional support was provided by: Beaverton Valley Times, Columbia Sportswear, King Pins, Marsh McLennan Agency, Nothing Bundt Cakes and Shake Shack.
