Due to COVID-19, events that the HISDEF would normally host as fundraisers were unable to take place, such as the Daddy-Daughter Dance. The pandemic hasn’t stopped them from giving back to our students and staff! HISDEF awarded over $13,000 in classroom grants at the beginning of the 2020-2021 school year which allowed teachers to utilize items earlier in the school year. Laura Popp and Amanda Rounsavall were awarded scholarships for continuing their education and the top 10% of seniors will still receive scholarships upon graduation. Campus grants will be given closer to the end of the school year and are usually for larger ticket items that can be ultilized by the whole campus. Pam Hamilton, HISDEF President, said that COVID-19 has resulted in decreased revenue for the organization and the disappointment of not being able to have fundraising events that have become highly anticipated in the community. “Despite these trials, we have been able to continue giving back to our students and schools,” Hamilton said. “Through the continued support of HISD staff and the community, we will persevere and strive to move forward in our mission to support HISD teachers and students.” As well as the annual staff drive and community donation drive, the organization did receive a large donation from Atmos Energy that will go toward Pre-K-3rd grade English-Language Arts.
