Thank
you for considering a gift to the Eanes Education Foundation.
Regardless of its form, your gift benefits all EISD students. Charitable
giving today ensures future benefits for generations to come!
Following are some ways you can help:
|
Support Our Annual Initiatives
While you can make a donation to EEF at any time, we have two major initiatives each year: the Teacher Fund Drive in the fall and the Gala in the spring.
The Teacher Fund Drive
 |
Make a donation to the The Teacher Fund. This campaign is EEF's focus in the fall, but you can make a donation at any time! Currently, net proceeds donated to the Teacher Fund in a given school year fund teacher and staff positions and salaries for all EISD campuses for the following school year.
There are many ways to donate! You can click here to make an online donation, or Print out the mail-in form and mail it in, or arrange monthly donations.
Don't forget about matching funds your employer may offer. Read more...

Gala
Always one of the hottest tickets in Westlake, the Gala presented by Lexus of Austin is held in late February each year. A wonderful evening with silent and live auctions, food, and entertainment awaits you! Table sponsorships will be available, as well as individual tickets.
Directed Giving Opportunities
In addition to our two Annual initiatives, EEF sponsors Directed Giving Opportunities. EEF's Directed Giving opportunities are created in response to specific EISD requests, and are designed for donors who want to make significant, multi-year financial commitments.
One current Directed Giving opportunity is the Partnership for Teacher Excellence Program (PTEP). This innovative program provides both financial and logistical support to enable teachers to pursue their master's degrees - first, by providing tuition assistance, and second, by locating classes taken during the school year at EISD facilities. With PTEP, the number of EISD teachers holding master's degrees is expected to grow dramatically!
If you are interested in PTEP or other Directed Giving opportunities, please contact us at eef@eanesisd.net or 732-9065.
Endowment
EEF is growing an Endowment Fund that will support EISD programs year after year. Donations of cash, property, life insurance or appreciated stock are gratefully accepted and will benefit our community for years to come. You can set up a charitable trust or even put us in your will. If you are interested in endowment giving, please contact us at 732-9065 or eef@eanesisd.net .
Socials
Socials are outstanding entertainment, a great way to meet others in our community and support our common cause -- keeping Eanes Exemplary. Eanes hosts and hostesses invite YOU to join them at an event designed by the hosting families. Each social is limited in size; you sign up for the number of spots you wish to purchase. Do you love throwing parties? Then EEF needs you to host a Social. You choose the theme, time, place, price and size of the event. 100% of the price paid to attend the social goes to EEF.
We Need Volunteers!
You have talents that can be put to great use serving our district! If you would like to donate your time, we would love to have you! Contact us at 732-9065 or eef@eanesisd.net for more information.

Gifts of stock, bonds and other securities can be easily donated to the Eanes Education Foundation by the paperless direct transfer method between your financial advisor and the foundation's Registered Investment Advisor, Durbin Bennett Peterson Private Wealth Management, LLP.
