Ways to Donate

Support Our Mission by Donating

Every child deserves access to the best possible education — and the teachers, tools and trusted mentors they need to succeed. But today, this fundamental right remains out of reach for too many young people in our community.

Although Hillsborough County is one of the largest school districts in the country, it receives among the lowest funding per student nationwide. Because of this ongoing funding crisis, teachers aren’t receiving adequate pay, and students are going without learning essentials necessary for their success.

As the only nonprofit solely focused on supporting and strengthening Hillsborough County Public Schools, we do this by:

  • Unlocking opportunities for students
  • Investing in teachers 
  • Strengthening public schools

Your donation to Hillsborough Education Foundation is an investment in the future of our students, teachers, and community. Whether it’s a one-time gift or a monthly contribution, your support helps bridge critical gaps in resources, empowers educators, and provides students with the tools they need to thrive. Every dollar you give creates lasting impact, shaping brighter futures for generations to come.
