Each year, CEF raises over $1,000,000 to
provide direct services and capacity building
initiatives within the CUSD community. Our
generous granters include state and county
agencies, local businesses and more than
one-dozen local foundations who believe
that Chester’s children deserve a good
education. Since 1994, Chester Education
Foundation has facilitated the 100+
member, Delaware County Communities
That Care Network which has received
state, national and international recognition
for successful implementation of research-
based prevention strategies, leveraging
and sustaining resources and exceptional
leadership of community collaboration.
