Since 2008, the Global Education Leadership Fund (GELF) has raised over $85,000 to send 71 of our low-income students abroad on one of Newton Public Schools’ many travel programs. Without this scholarship program, our faculty-led travel opportunities would not be open to students whose parents struggle to make ends meet in Newton and Boston.

The GELF fundraiser on Saturday, March 21, at Newton North, will feature:

• 5 course gourmet tasting menu prepared by Chef Katya Salkever, including tropical shellfish ceviche, balsamic-braised short ribs, & more!
• Live music by Newton South’s very own Katani Sumner and band
• Fine wine & Sam Adams beer pairings. The beer will be carefully selected and donated by Jim Koch, co-founder of the Boston Beer Company, who will be present to explain the selections.
• Live auction
• Excellent company (150 of the coolest members of our community!)
