The Lexington Education Foundation (LEF) is a 501c3 nonprofit that raises funds to support innovative ideas, inspire teachers, and create new opportunities for students in Lexington Public Schools. We turn community generosity into meaningful impact in the classroom.

Making An Impact: Over the past five years, LEF has awarded more than $1 million in grants to educators across all 10 Lexington Public Schools. Since our founding, we’ve invested more than $4 million in innovative ideas that enrich learning and empower educators. Click here for examples of our grants.
