About the Ely Chapman Education Foundation
The Ely Chapman Education Foundation (ECEF) is an independent organization located at 403 Scammel Street in Marietta, Ohio, United States. ECEF is not affiliated with any national or state youth group and relies on grants, program assistance, and contributions from caring individuals to support its mission.
ECEF strives to provide academically-oriented, hands-on learning opportunities for local youth. In 2014-2015, over 45% of students received financial assistance to attend ECEF programs, with $40,000 in scholarship assistance awarded that year.
One of the foundation's current projects is the restoration of a mural and living rivers water display, funded by the Ohio Arts Council and Marietta Community Foundation. These displays, located on the first floor of ECEF's building, serve as educational tools for children enrolled in the S.U.N.S.H.I.N.E. Learning Station.
Children work alongside artist Geoff Schenkel to engage in art, self-expression, math, construction, historical significance, preservation, and aquatic life. Through experiential learning, kids learn painting techniques on canvas and apply them to the wall and sculpture. They also assist with the construction aspects of the project.
Lori Ullman, Executive Director of ECEF, emphasizes the importance of restoring the displays to attract visitors and preserve the vision of the organization's founder, Alice Chapman. The goal is to update the displays while maintaining their original vision and enhancing the colors.
ECEF is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, and donations are tax-deductible. By supporting ECEF, individuals can help provide valuable educational experiences for local youth and contribute to the preservation of artistic and historical elements within the community.

Reviews of Ely Chapman Education Foundation
"Place is amazing great staff awesome programs"
"Great school for before and after school!"
"Helpful, Structured and Nurturing. This center is wonderful. Do not believe the claims made by people who base opinions on what other people say and not personal experience. Our society is so quick to "get on the bandwagon" that people just assume that one incident defines a place. Please write a review based on experience, not on rumors you hear."
"Friendly and helpful."
"Great afterschool and pre-school programs. Wonderful experience with them."
