Huge love to our title sponsor, , for lighting the way year after year.

We are endlessly grateful, truly humbled, and still riding that post-run high because of YOU.

Save the date 🗓️ April 10, 2027—we’re doing it all again.

Bus For A Cause is one for the benefactors for this year's 401Gives. Bus For A Cause was started a few years ago when we found out that many field trips were free to the students, but the buses were not. Bus For a Cause fills that gap with providing transportation for these enriching out of classroom learning environment.

Dear Supporters and Friends of NPEF,

TODAY is the day! 401Gives begins at 6:00 AM and runs through Wednesday at 6:00 PM.

Our goal for the Newport Public Education Foundation (NPEF) this year is $5,000, and every contribution truly makes a difference. Thank you for supporting our mission and helping us move closer to this goal.

As an ALL VOLUNTEER board, we are dedicated to supporting the students, teachers, and administration of Newport Public Schools. Your generosity helps fund enriching experiences beyond the classroom, provides transportation for educational opportunities, and supports scholarships that allow students to continue their learning journeys.

With your support, we are confident we can reach and even exceed our goal. Thank you for being an important part of this effort.
