The Garaway Education Foundation is passionate about helping students pursue higher education opportunities.
The GEF was formed during the 2004-2005 school year by a group of concerned graduates, parents, ad citizens. This group believed that the Foundation should exist to support the activities of the Garaway Local School System in providing excellent educational programs and opportunities along with maintaining the historical documentation of the Garaway Community Family.
