Separate from the PTA, The Del Mar Schools Education Foundation (DMSEF), is a parent-run non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that raises funds for specialized, credentialed STEAM+ teachers across the Del Mar Union School District (DMUSD).  Although the PTA and DMSEF are separate organizations, we support each other with the DMUSD students in mind.

The DMSEF is proud to be part of a district where the vast majority of families and many business partners contribute to DMSEF every year. Working together, our foundation’s goal is to fund 40% of our STEAM+ specialists’ salaries. DMSEF’s partnership with our school district is a key component in consistently placing DMUSD in the top 1% of school districts in California.

DMSEF is celebrating 20 years raising funds in support of our school district.  We are proud that our fundraising last year will enable outstanding STEAM+ programs across DMUSD in our schools and the Launch program this year.  To learn more about your incredible STEAM+ teachers, in-person Stallions click here and Launch Stallions click here.

DMSEF will have 3 fundraisers this year – our Fall campaign, our Spring friends and family fundraiser and our Close the Gap campaign in May.  To learn more or to make a tax-deductible contribution to support STEAM+, please visit www.dmsef.org.
