The mission of the Oak Harbor Educational Foundation (OHEF) is to empower Oak Harbor School District’s students and educators. We create opportunities for students to thrive, receive scholarships for post-secondary education, and enable teachers and schools to provide supportive and innovative learning experiences.OHEF was founded in 1992 by a group of caring community members who believed that every student in Oak Harbor deserves the opportunity to reach their full potential. What began as a grassroots effort has grown into a powerful force for educational excellence—connecting community generosity with student success.As a private, nonprofit organization, OHEF is dedicated to enriching the educational experience in Oak Harbor Public Schools. Our citizen-led Board of Directors carefully stewards every contribution to ensure that each dollar directly supports our mission: investing in the dreams and futures of local students.
