GIVING
WHY DO WE HAVE AN EDUCATION FUND?
The state has not increased the basic allotment for per student funding for three straight years, leaving districts like Hays CISD with a GAP in funding for just basic educational needs. Help us fund the difference between what the State of Texas deems adequate and Hays CISD considers excellence.
BETTER TOGETHER FUND
HAYS CISD EMPLOYEES may contribute a monthly amount or make a one-time donation to the Hays CISD Education Foundation. The annual HEF Employee Giving Campaign takes place in the fall and 100% of donations go back to the classroom. The Better Together campaign supports our schools by funding school supplies, Teacher Innovation Grants, Teacher of the Year celebrations, professional development, and more.
With your support, HEF can reach its goal of funding over $90,000 for our educators to receive enriching opportunities and implement innovative ideas.
​
Why is recurring revenue important for HEF? Monthly giving is a recurring donation to HEF — at any amount — that makes a big impact for Hays CISD students and staff. Individual monthly donations make a much larger and longer-term impact than a one-time donation. According to The State of Modern Philanthropy, recurring donors are over five times more valuable to your nonprofit than one-time donors. A recurring donation allows supporters to spread the financial impact of their giving across the entire year, lessening the acute financial effect.
