Our Mission
Lummi Island Foundation for Education (LIFE) is committed to sustaining and enhancing education at Beach Elementary School and for children on Lummi Island through current and long-term financial and material support.
Our Goals
Lummi Island Foundation for Education:
Provides limited and defined advocacy efforts at federal, state, and local school district levels about general education issues and those impacting Beach Elementary School.
Encourages students to become active, compassionate and life-long learners by investing in innovative educational programs not funded by the school district, addressing at-risk and gifted children, and benefiting a significant number of Island children.
We are able to do this through community support, grants, events, and have partnered with important organizations like Friends of the Island Library (FOIL), The Lummi Island Grange, Lummi Island Community Association (LICA), the Lummi Island Civic Club, as well as off-Island partnerships with Western Washington University.
