2024-25 MUSF Mustang Fund


THANK YOU to our generous MUS community in helping the Montecito Union School Foundation EXCEED its goals for the 2024-25 Annual Mustang Fund!

With over 180 individual donations, large and small, we were able to provide full funding to support our initiatives in the Fitness and Wellness programs at MUS. We are happy to say that planning and execution has already begun on these projects to foster our children's healthy bodies and minds.

We would like to recognize the individuals and families that made this campaign a success and truly appreciate the support you were willing to give! Without your support, none of these initiatives would be possible. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Best,
Bruce Frey - Mustang Fund Chair, Board Member
Tara Fergusson - Montecito Union School Foundation, President

About Mustang Fund:

The Mustang Fund is the annual capital campaign led by the Montecito Union School Foundation (MUSF). The Foundation was founded in 2018 and is driven by a mission to enhance the academic experience of our children through school programming, events, and capital project contributions. Examples of past projects include funding for the iLab and the Nature Lab, which continue to thrive at MUS.

Annual Giving ensures that MUS remains a fantastic school for our children and community. We rely on your participation to realize our impact goals. The Mustang Fund is a significant source of funds for the approved budget and we ask everyone in our school community to participate with a tax-deductible gift. With many generous donations, the Foundation has been able to allocate funds to projects such as the i-Lab and Library, making much needed capital improvements.
