In 2025\/26, our programs will impact every enrolled student (3,144) across the district,  addressing challenges like food insecurity, mental health challenges, increased demand for special-needs learning resources and socioeconomic barriers to achievement.<br \/>\nSignificant wealth disparities exist in Blaine, with Hailey being named the 5th most expensive city in the US by the New York Times. As the cost of living rises, many local families are struggling. These pressures are also felt within BCSD, where BCEF works to support students facing these obstacles.<br \/>\nIdaho is ranked 51st in the nation for public school funding. Due to budget shortfalls, classroom funds have been reduced significantly. Essential programs may be reduced or eliminated, leaving teachers to seek additional support or pay for materials out of pocket. BCEF\u2019s programs accommodate both urgent needs and planned projects.<\/p>\n<p>Total Project Budget: 10000<\/p>\n<p>Other Funding <br \/>\nSources For The Project (Committed &amp; Potential): Wood River Women&#8217;s Foundation Pooled Grant<\/p>\n<p>Project Duration: Academic School year 2026\/2027<br \/>\nGeographical Area Served: Blaine County, Idaho<br \/>\nAge Group To Be Served: Prek-12th grade<\/p>\n<p>Contact Information<\/p>\n<hr size='1' noshade='noshade' \/>\n<p>Contact Prefix (Mr,Mrs etc.): Mrs. <br \/>\nContact First Name: Deborah<br \/>\nContact Last Name: Van Law<br \/>\nContact Title: <br \/>\nContact Phone: 2083091942<br \/>\nContact Email: deborah@supportbcef.org<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hermanowski Family Foundation Initial Request Form Organization Name: Blaine County Education Foundation Legal Name (if Different): Blaine County Education Foundation Also Known As: Blaine County Education Foundation Mailing Address: P.O.
