About Us

How It Works

The Fund for Western Albemarle is powered by The Endowment Project Foundation (TEPF), an independent 501c3. TEPF collaborates directly with individual schools, principals, teachers, alumni, and students to support education initiatives. By operating independently of existing public school funding channels, TEPF provides donors with a choice. TEPF ensures that donations directly benefit the school and provide an independent voice for the alumni community and other supporters of the Fund for Western Albemarle. Your support enhances experiences and outcomes specifically for Western Albemarle High School students and teachers.
