Snapshot of lbschoolpower.org (home, about, our-team) on May 14, 2026. Documents SchoolPower as a 501(c)(3) (EIN 95-3565451) founded in 1981, governed by a board of trustees of LBUSD-parent volunteers. Core programs: Educator Grants, Family Support Services & Scholarships, After-School Enrichment, Athletics Fund, plus a separately-governed Endowment. Board officers (2025–26) include Ashley Brown (President), J.J. Ballesteros (1st VP), Julie Gersten (VP Programs), Emily Rolfing (VP Public Relations), and Sarah Durand (Executive Director). Personnel overlap with FUEL board: Gersten, Rolfing, and Iva Pawling sit on both. SchoolPower has no governance role over the district — it is a funding partner, not an oversight body.
