Thanks to the many generous supporters, the Pelican Education Foundation (PEF) has been
providing grants and scholarships to the Klamath Falls City Schools for well over a decade.
Last year, PEF awarded $7,000 to teachers for classroom enrichment projects and over $19,000 to
graduating Klamath Union High School seniors for continued education scholarships. PEF has
significantly grown its resources in the last several years and now manages over $250,000. The earnings
from our assets are used to further our efforts in supporting the Klamath Falls City Schools and are also
used for offering scholarships.
