Southwest Education Fund (SWEF)
(formerly the Quality Education Campaign)

Who We Are
The Southwest Education Fund is an important annual fundraising campaign led by parent volunteers for Southwest High School. Thanks to the generosity of parents and other supporters, we have raised more than $1 million in critical funds since 2004 to support excellence in education, including helping to pay for teachers and counselors, buy new textbooks and classroom furniture and support our fine arts programs. Please visit our new website for details: http://www.SWEducationFund.org
