At MEF, we believe that education is the key to unlocking the potential of every student. Since our establishment in 1996, we have been committed to enhancing the educational experience for students in the McAllen Independent School District. As a philanthropic, tax-exempt public corporation, we operate independently of McAllen ISD and are governed by a board of dedicated business and civic leaders from our community.
