The Elmbrook Education Foundation is a 501(c)(3) independent, non-profit organization that has provided scholarships and grants to Elmbrook students and schools for over 60 years. Founded in 1958 by parents and community partners as a scholarship fund, the EEF has since awarded $1,500,000 in scholarships to Elmbrook students and given $500,000 in grants to Elmbrook educators and schools. The EEF accomplishes its mission by partnering with parents, teachers, administrators, community members, and businesses throughout the year, highlighted by four annual fundraising events: Boos & Ghouls Night Out, Ladies Night, Circle of Friends/STEAM Event, and the Elmbrook Golf Open. In addition, the EEF partners with The Corners of Brookfield to bring Thank You Thursday, a staff appreciation event throughout the months of February and March.
