About us

The Greater East Hampton Education Foundation was founded in 2004 by a group of dedicated parents, educators, business people and community members with a mission of providing and promoting educational opportunities to students from Montauk to Sagaponack, and enhancing life-long learning and unity in the East Hampton area.

Since our inception, we have funded scholarships to graduating seniors, awarded grants to various schools, supported Suffolk Homework Help, underwritten the new EHHS field press box, and provided opportunities for students to attend Harvard Model Congress as well as a performance of the chorus and orchestra at Carnegie Hall. These are just a sampling of our accomplishments and awards. 

Mission Statement 

The Greater East Hampton Education Foundation seeks to enrich the academic lives of students in the East Hampton Town public schools by supporting superior educational programs.  Through its work, the GEHEF helps students broaden their educational experience, widen their perspective on the world, and deepen their connection to the community.
