The WiSH Education Foundation was established recently with a group of 15 local community leaders and public school advocates to raise additional funds for the Hart School District to maintain its high quality programs, during this challenging time of state budget cuts. The Vision Statement of this 501(c)3 non-profit organization is: The Wm. S. Hart Education Foundation is dedicated to quality public education for all students. Through the generosity of our caring community and corporate partners, we fund programs and initiatives that go beyond what tax dollars provide and help elevate and prepare our students for life. WiSH is the official private-fundraising organization for the support of the William S. Hart Union High School District’s educational programs.

A limited number of VIP tickets will be available for $100, which includes a special VIP seating area for the performance, and admission to the VIP After-Party.
