Testimonials

OHEF generously supports innovative school projects that would not otherwise be possible. I've been fortunate to have them as partners for two public art and poetry grants, resulting in the installation of student-initiated artwork downtown on Pioneer Way. The Foundation's vision, and commitment to our schools, makes applied learning tangible for our kids and our community.”
