    Supporting NEISD Through NEEF

    The North East Educational Foundation (NEEF) is a private non-profit 501(c)(3) charitable corporation that was chartered in 1986. Its mission is to seek, cultivate, and obtain revenues to develop and expand educational opportunities for the students of NEISD. Through fundraising efforts, NEEF plays a vital role in supporting NEISD by providing financial resources for educational initiatives.

    NEEF’s Contributions to NEISD

    NEEF plays a pivotal role in enhancing the educational experience within NEISD through its grant program. This program provides financial support to classroom teachers for implementing innovative and non-traditional resources and activities. Grants from NEEF enable NEISD classrooms to incorporate cutting-edge technology, STEAM programs, and hands-on learning tools. They also support projects that involve real-world applications of science, sustainability, and technology, offering students unique learning experiences that prepare them for future success.

    Applications for NEEF grants are available to NEISD teachers and staff, who can apply for funding to bring groundbreaking projects to their classrooms or campuses by following the grant instructions. Grants are evaluated based on their connection to the mission, impact on students, innovation, and sustainability beyond the first year.

    NEEF relies on community contributions to continue its impactful work. Individuals can donate to NEEF by making tax-deductible donations, which are used to fund educational grants, programs, and projects across the district.

Community members are encouraged to participate by attending events or volunteering to help sustain NEEF's mission.

    Businesses and corporations can partner with NEEF to make a difference in public education. By collaborating with NEEF, partners gain recognition for their commitment to the San Antonio community by supporting public education.
