The Run 4 Education is the primary, annual fundraiser for the Guy Emanuele Sports Fund.
Benefiting the Guy Emanuele Sports Fund
All of the proceeds for the Run 4 Education benefit the Fremont Education Foundation's Guy Emanuele Sports Fund (GESF). The GESF provides $200 scholarships to high school students in Fremont Unified School District that wish to participate in sport, but can not afford it without financial help. In 2008-09, GESF provided over $8,000 in individual scholarships to FUSD athletes. The GESF also helped junior high sports teams with grants for uniforms, referee fees, and equipment costs. This school year the GESF also provided a $10,000 emergency grant to keep the lights on at night soccer games for all FUSD boys and girls soccer teams. Without the grant, the soccer teams would not have been able to finish their seasons. And, based on the generous donations from our Run 4 Education, the GESF also helps fund after school basketball leagues for both boys and girls at all 27 elementary schools in the Fremont Unified School District. To learn more about the GESF, and other funds provided by FEF, please see the FEF web site at www.fremont-education.org.
