Bring Your Big Ideas to Life—Become an MEF Chapter!
Across Mapleton, school communities are coming together in joyful, powerful ways—and the Mapleton Education Foundation (MEF) is proud to partner with school-based “Chapters” to help make it happen. These Chapters, formed by PTOs or booster groups, create unforgettable opportunities for students—like fall festivals, school plays, movie nights, family glow parties, and field trips beyond the classroom.
Each Chapter is led by a volunteer team of parents, staff, school leaders, and neighbors who believe in the power of community. MEF provides the support to make it easy and impactful, including:
- Full 501(c)(3) nonprofit status
- Financial infrastructure and transparent bookkeeping
- Comprehensive insurance coverage
- Ongoing partnership, guidance, and oversight
By joining MEF as a Chapter, your school gains the confidence and capacity to bring great ideas to life—and every dollar raised goes directly toward enriching students’ experiences and expanding what’s possible.
