Enjoy a delicious lunch in a beautiful setting while we share the inspiring work we do in collaboration with the K-8 Santa Rosa schools.

You'll hear an inspiring keynote address from Dr. Daisy Morales, Superintendent of Santa Rosa City Schools. Dr. Morales will passionately share why enriching educational experiences are vital for our students' success and why ensuring access to these opportunities is more critical now than ever.

In addition, we will honor our Emeritus Member Dr. Diann Kitamura, who was a founding member of MiSREF, and led the board in defining the role and responsibilities of the foundation, ensuring we make the greatest impact for the largest number of students. Her contributions are too many count, and we look forward to honoring this amazing champion of equitable enrichment opportunities for students.

In these critical times, schools need more resources than ever to provide enriching educational experiences. As a dedicated grant-making foundation, we are passionately investing in enrichment programs with an equity-focused approach, positively impacting the lives of 6,000 students. Join us and be a part of this transformative journey!
