About

The Education Opportunity Fund was established in 2021 as a nonprofit organization, exclusively for charitable purposes.

Lynda Cannon Greene, Executive Director, has over forty years of experience in education and philanthropy, developing the firm conviction that all children deserve an education that inspires and prepares them for a successful life. After classroom teaching and working as a literacy and science specialist, Lynda developed an expertise in teacher professional development at the district level and then joined Stanford University as the first director of the Stanford/Schools Collaborative. 

Through her consulting business, Lynda has supported school districts throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, including San Francisco, Oakland, San Jose, Palo Alto, Millbrae, San Mateo, Mountain View-Los Altos, and Evergreen. Lynda’s clients include corporations: Adobe Systems, Applied Materials, Genetech, Graham Blanchard, Intel, NVIDIA, Scholastic, and Tribune Education; foundations: Packard, Haas Jr., Walter S. Johnson, and Stuart, and non-profits: the Center for Science, Technology, and Society at Santa Clara University, Marin Promise, and The Tech Museum.

Lynda is grateful for the opportunity to lead the Education Opportunity Fund and is learning and drawing inspiration from the ongoing education of her six grandchildren.
