What is an Education Foundation?

As an Education Foundation, the Shallowater Education Foundation can benefit our
school district by providing much needed resources for innovative, educational
programs that aren’t funded through taxes. Our district’s Education Foundation
is an independent, non-profit, tax-exempt 501(c)(3) charitable organization that
provides tax benefits for donors, and funds programs for students. The benefits
are much greater than simply raising funds. Our goal to be an effective
Education Foundation, means attracting involvement and support for our school
district from all segments of the community.
