IPSF Giving Day – October 18 – Friday

Wear orange on October 18 to show you value educational excellence in Irvine! Encourage your school community to rock their ORANGE to support our schools and be sure to show your spirit off on social media. #SupportIPSF #TurnIrvineOrange

WHY OCTOBER 18? On October 18, 1996, Irvine Public Schools Foundation was founded by a group of parents and community leaders to ensure that changes in state funding would not impact the quality of education that we value as a community. Continue their legacy and join the countless parents who have generously donated to IPSF over the past 23 years with a gift to the Educational Excellence Fund on IPSF Giving Day!
