Solidarity in Community
The Field Mithoefer Fund
At EB, community is more than a word-it's at the foundation of who we are. It means showing up for one another, celebrating together in times of joy, and standing united in times of need.
For over twenty years, the Field Mithoefer Fund--named after an EB grandmother famous for her generosity in the school's early days--has embodied the spirit of communal solidarity at EB. The fund provides vital support for EB families who encounter unexpected financial hardships, ensuring that no child's education is disrupted. Because at EB, we believe that every student deserves to learn, grow, and thrive-no matter what challenges life may bring.
This fund isn't just about tuition assistance; it's about standing up for one another. It's about making sure that friendships remain unbroken, that classrooms stay whole, and that our students continue to learn side by side. It's about coming together as a community, just as we always have.
For years, generous donors have made this safety net possible, ensuring that families have the support they need when they need it most. Over the last ten years, more than $350,000 has been awarded to deserving families, allowing them to continue their EB journeys when they might have otherwise been cut short. Now, it's our turn to continue this tradition of care and commitment.
When we support each other, we build a stronger, more connected EB. Together, we can ensure that every student and every family remains part of this incredible community.
