Founded in 2002, the Cedar Hill ISD Education foundation is an independent non-profit organization.  Since our founding, we have disbursed and pledged $673,784,52.  Included in this figure is the $12,500 in grants we awarded on May 2, 2019 during our Grant Patrol, the $2,000.00 we contributed to recognize the CHISD Teachers of the Year.  We have not yet updated the total giving to reflect the over $5,000 spent in March of 2020 procuring school supplies to be distributed to student families.   

This is the total amount the foundation has given in grants, scholarships and in support of special initiatives since our founding in 2002.  Follow these links to learn more about recent activity: 2019 Grant Patrol, Teachers of the Year, $30,000 for AP Rewards Program.
