Two Los Altos Schools Receive $1,000 Checks

Two Los Altos schools received $1,000 checks from Wells Fargo this week. The company presented 43 $1,000 checks to Peninsula and Silicon Valley school representatives at a breakfast held in Foster City on Wednesday.

Almond Elementary and Los Altos High schools each received $1,000.

The schools were selected by managers of Wells Fargo branches. 

“Wells Fargo values our communities where our team members live and work,” said Wendy Haller, president of Wells Fargo’s Peninsula market. “One way we help our local communities is by providing funds to our local schools. Each of our Peninsula store managers selected one school that would receive a $1,000 grant. And principals will be able to spend the money on however they feel it will best benefit their students. We appreciate all the hard work educators do to teach our next generation of leaders.”
