Supporting Oregon students in need.
OEA Foundation

The OEA Foundation exists because of generous support from educators like you who have come together to provide financial support to students and their families when they experience challenges. Thank you for your contribution!

The Oregon Education Association (OEA) Foundation collects voluntary contributions from members and employees to help meet the most basic needs of our students. One hundred percent of all donations go directly to assist public school students in Oregon. OEA pays for all the administrative costs of the Foundation through member dues. Members can access the OEA Foundation to meet the modest and immediate needs of students whose most basic needs are not being met. Foundation grants can be used to buy a warm coat, a pair of shoes, clothes, a doctor's appointment, a pair of eyeglasses or to purchase medication, to name just a few of the needs. Your support of the OEA Foundation will make a difference!

The OEA PAC is fueled by Oregon educators like you who come together to fight for public education champions at the local and state level, regardless of political party. Make your voice heard by making your recurring contribution to OEA PAC.

OEA-PAC is OEA's political action committee (PAC). We use money that is voluntarily contributed to elect pro-public education school boards, state representatives and senators, and governors. Our PAC program is also coordinated with the National Education Association's federal PAC, which serves as our voice in Washington and helps to elect pro-public education members of Congress.

Political decisions affect our classrooms, jobs, students, and families. Our union is facing unprecendented attacks and our profession and funding are under constant threat; we can't afford to sit on the sidelines. The most powerful tool our association has to protect public schools is OEA-PAC.

Join thousands of your fellow Oregon educators in contributing monthly to OEA-PAC and make your voice heard!
