Twenty six years ago, the Page Education Foundation (PEF) launched an inspiration: invite promising students of color to continue their education, and they will accept. Since its inception in 1988, PEF has parlayed this innovative idea into a catalyst for shaping the education and social responsibility of vibrant young people of color. We do this by enticing college-age youth to positively influence younger children of color. In exchange for their volunteer service to children, PEF offers Page Scholars professional mentoring and financial assistance for college. The program has grown from providing funding to ten students in 1988 to 525 students today, and over 5,500 in the past 26 years. These exceptional young people have given more than 350,000 service hours to younger children in an effort to positively influence their future education. Our vibrant community and dedication to service does not end once Page Scholars graduate. Our alumni stay connected to the Foundation by serving on our Advisory Board, providing professional development opportunities to current Page Scholars, making financial contributions, and volunteering at various PEF events throughout the year.

| RAISE MONEY, GIVE A SCHOLARSHIP. | It's that easy. Every dollar raised is given to a student in rural Tanzania in the form of a scholarship, who can't otherwise afford the fees for continuing education. When every $600 is raised, a scholarship is covered for a student of Ketumbeine Secondary School for one year. Our goal is to provide full, 3-year commitment scholarships for as many students as possible. -Ketumbeine Secondary School- Ketumbeine is a village in Northern Tanzania. This is only one of thousands of villages where resources are lacking. By providing the opportunity for further education, we can help students reach their full potential. Sustainable change can only begin at a local level. -Scholarship Disbursement- Ketumbeine Scholarship Fund is partnered with a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization called Operation Bootstrap that has been giving scholarships like these on a global scale since 1965. Check out our website to read the full story, see photos, or to make a contribution; literally every dollar goes towards the cause. -More Information- http://www.kscholarshipfund.org

ServeMinnesota is the state's designated recipient of funding for the AmeriCorps program, often referred to as "the domestic Peace Corps". We administer a portfolio of 12 AmeriCorps programs with more than 1,200 AmeriCorps members addressing a variety of critical human needs spanning educational achievement, economic opportunity and environmental protection. More than 650 sites across the state are hosting an AmeriCorps member this year. These sites include schools, local nonprofits and community organizations. ServeMinnesota's primary strategic goal is to invest its AmeriCorps resources in a manner that achieves the greatest impact on solving critical issues for the state — thereby serving as a catalyst for positive social change in Minnesota. We align the power of AmeriCorps with successful approaches that provide cost-effective solutions and yield measurable results. By applying evidence-based practices, bringing scale to what works and demonstrating positive outcomes, we have a formula for increased impact. Our education initiatives combine the power of AmeriCorps with proven learning methods to help thousands of children achieve grade level proficiency in reading and math — two critical indicators for future success. Without AmeriCorps resources, thousands of children would not receive the critical interventions they need to succeed in school and life.
Ad Fed isn't your typical professional organization. We don't issue membership pins (we have pins, but they're given as awards, not worn on lapels). We don't condone hazing (the paddles in our office are for the Media Auction, we swear!). We do offer networking opportunities, seminars and other events.
