  Purpose:

The Carthage ISD Education Foundation raises money for quality educational
enrichment programs for all CISD students and classrooms.
Established in June 2002, the Foundation is a non-profit, tax-exempt organization.
Therefore, all gifts are tax deductible.

To be considered for funding, programs must show a direct impact on students in
the classroom.  Moreover, the Foundation places a high priority on programs that
present opportunities to as many students as possible and for educational programs
that could not be implemented at an appropriate level without the assistance of
Foundation funding.
