PEP Annual Appeal Fund
Donations to our general fund allow PEP to support several initiatives, organizations, and programs that promote educational excellence in the Glenbard schools. We work with schools and districts to support unique fundraising initiatives for projects like playground equipment, books for libraries, computers for classrooms, and funds for school and student organizations. PEP is a 501(c)(3) charitable foundation.

INCubatoredu program at Glenbard High School District 87
The INCubatoredu program at Glenbard High School District 87 is much like a classroom version of “Shark Tank,” where teams of students work together to create and fully develop a product or service, putting their thoughts and ideas into action by creating a business startup. In partnership with the College of Dupage, students receive dual credit for Entrepreneurship 1161. In this fully authentic experience, business professionals volunteer as coaches and mentors for student teams, sharing their knowledge, expertise and experience with students. The year-long course culminates in a Final Pitch Contest to a board of advisors, who will award seed funding to teams with promising business ideas.
Marquardt School District 15 Foundation
Marquardt PEP Fund supports two key initiatives:
Blessings in a Backpack: Provides food for students and families in need over the weekends.
Educational Enhancements: Donations to Marquardt PEP Fund are used to buy new teaching tools, resources, technology and innovative projects to classroom teachers within the district. Further, MSD #15 utilizes donations to enhance the fine arts experience for students. Lastly, we use donations to highlight and honor students and staff members at our annual spring district-wide Changemakers Event that have made a significant and lasting impact in our community.
