Our Story
Chelsea Education Foundation was founded in 1990 by then-superintendent Joe Piasecki with a simple but powerful goal: to strengthen Chelsea’s future by connecting schools, businesses, and the community.
Since then, CEF has helped fund a wide range of educational opportunities that benefit Chelsea students—from innovative teacher grants to college and trade school scholarships.
By serving as a bridge between generosity and opportunity, CEF helps make meaningful educational experiences possible across the district.
