2025 “GIFTS THAT GROW MINDS”

BE A PART OF Arlington isd education foundation’s “gifts that grow minds” (through Dec 1, 2025)

Celebrate the spirit of giving with the Arlington ISD Education Foundation! Support AISD teachers and students through festive opportunities — buy tickets to Cocoa with Mrs. Claus, join a private bus tour of Interlochen holiday lights, or sponsor a Community Impact Grant that directly benefits classrooms across our district. Every gift makes a difference this holiday season!

 

Sponsor a Community Impact Grant

Educators across Arlington ISD have classroom-ready projects that need funding now—from literacy kits and robotics to sensory tools and lab supplies. Your gift closes the gap between a great idea and a student’s hands-on learning experience.

Community Impact Grants range from $500–$2,000, and every dollar goes straight to a teacher‑led project that benefits AISD students as early as Spring 2026.

With the assistance of individuals, businesses, and community organizations, our goal is to fully fund this year’s requests by December 1, 2025.

How Sponsorship Works

  2. Sponsor with friends or family, coworkers, or a community group. Simply sponsor with your payment online, or contact Executive Director Jeannie Deakyne at jdeakyne@arlingtonef.org for other payment options.

  3. Celebrate with us! You will be invited to attend the “Prize Patrol Check Presentation” along with the Arlington ISD Education Foundation in January 2026!

Goal: Fund every Community Impact Grant by December 1 so teachers can launch projects without delay.
