Since our inception, ELEF has granted well over $100,000 to East Lansing’s classrooms that has provided teachers with innovative and supplemental materials that further engage our students in their process of learning. Please enjoy the information provided to you. We hope you join us in our quest to make supplemental materials and programs available, adding to the exceptional learning environment for which East Lansing is known.
