IPSF HONORS TOP 100 COMPANIES SUPPORTING IRVINE SCHOOLS

We are excited to announce the Irvine Public Schools Foundation list of Top 100 Companies Supporting Educational Excellence in Irvine, which was recently published in the Orange County Business Journal. These socially responsible companies are investing in Orange County's future by ensuring a world-class education for each child in every school. We applaud their leadership and invite you to join them in support of educational excellence.

Companies represented on IPSF's Top 100 List include global brands such as Google, Broadcom, and Kia Motors, as well as some of Orange County's most influential corporations, including DCI Engineers, Maruchan, FivePoint and Ingersoll Rand/Trane.

Contributions from these companies represent over two thirds of the annual monies raised by IPSF. To find out how your business can support Irvine schools and become part of the Top 100, visit .
