Making a Difference, One Child at a Time
Who We Are
The Child Assistance Fund (CAF) was established during the 1987-88 school year as a result of increased student needs for services that could not be met through existing programs. CAF is a non-profit organization with board members who are San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools employees.
What We Do
The funds donated are used to meet the special and personal needs of students who are enrolled in any programs operated by the San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools.
When a family/parent is unable to obtain services or materials needed for their child/children to attend school and receive the education they so desperately need, the CAF steps in by providing the funding to obtain the services and/or materials.
Through this fund, students have been provided with vision exams, eyeglasses, ENT exams, hearing aids, clothing, books, tickets to education-based field trips, awards, bicycles, infant car seats, bus transportation to school, and many other needed services and supplies. When all other resources are exhausted, the CAF is there for students!
The goal of the Child Assistance Fund is to enhance the educational experience of students in the programs served by the San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools, especially in circumstances of economic need or other forms of familial distress.
How You Can Help
Help support the Child Assistance Fund by completing a payroll deduction form or making a donation. Your tax-deductible contribution, through payroll deduction, will enable these children to reach their full potential in school. At the end of the year, a tax donation letter can be provided upon request.
You can also help by joining the CAF committee! We are currently seeking members in all regions that can help identify students in need.
Contact your regional CAF representative today for more information about our program or to request a payroll deduction card and begin providing a brighter future for SBCSS students!
*All donations are irrevocably dedicated for charitable purposes to support the educational needs of students enrolled in programs operated by the San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools.
