#GivingTuesday & The Sharyland ISD Education Foundation Partnership
Tuesday December 3 2024
GivingTuesday is a Movement that Unleashes the Power of Radical Generosity Around the World.
GivingTuesday reimagines a world built upon shared humanity and generosity.
Our global network collaborates year-round to inspire generosity around the world, with a common mission to build a world where generosity is part of everyday life.
Whether it’s making someone smile, helping a neighbor or stranger out, showing up for an issue or people we care about, or giving some of what we have to those who need our help, every act of generosity counts, and everyone has something to give.
This Giving Tuesday, The Sharyland ISD Education Foundation (SEF) is joining the global movement to support education and make lasting impact on students, teachers and the community. By partnering with Giving Tuesday, SEF aims to raise funds for initiatives that directly benefit Sharyland ISD students and educators, including classroom resources, innovative teaching grants, and scholarships.
The Foundation’s mission is to enhance educational opportunities by providing teachers with tools and resources they need to create impactful learning experiences and helping students reach their academic potential through scholarships. Every donation, big or small, will make a difference by supporting these programs. This Giving Tuesday, SEF encourages everyone to participate and contribute to a brighter future for the Sharyland ISD Community. Consider Joining SEF in their mission by donating, spreading the word, and supporting Sharyland ISD students and educators.
