Buy In. PUSD.

Support the businesses that support our schools

Great schools need a strong community. Let's use our buying power to support local merchants that support our local schools.

Kids at PUSD's McKinley SchoolInvest in PUSD Kids [IIPK], a group of local parents, teachers and community members who believe in the value of public education, and the Pasadena Educational Foundation [PEF], the nonprofit organization founded in 1971 to build support for educational programs in the Pasadena Unified School District, have launched "BUY IN. PUSD."

To help you know which local businesses support our local schools, we are delivering stickers to place in the window of every business within Altadena, Pasadena and Sierra Madre that has contributed at least $150 this school year to the Pasadena Unified School District through the PEF or individual school PTAs and annual funds.
