The Dallas Education Foundation
As the non-profit, philanthropic partner of Dallas ISD, the Dallas Education Foundation aligns with the district's strategic initiatives and partners with business leaders, residents, and philanthropic community to enable economic mobility for our 140,000 scholars, 88% of whom are economically disadvantaged.
Dallas ISD is a district on the rise! In just one year, the number of A-rated schools doubled from 30 to 60, B-rated campuses increased from 71 to 103, and 93% of our schools in the district are rated A, B, or C. Behind these historic gains is a community committed to ensuring students succeed: parents, teachers, school administrators, and you, our community.
Your North Texas Giving Day gift to the Dallas Education Foundation fuels initiatives that make these results possible:
Together, we bridge gaps, provide critical resources, and shape brighter futures for the students of Dallas ISD.
Join us in our mission. Every dollar you give stays right here in Dallas ISD to directly impact students, educators, and campuses across our city.
The Dallas Education Foundation (DEF) is the designated non-profit philanthropic partner of Dallas Independent School District.

Our vision is a galvanized community whose resources support the transformative work that makes Dallas ISD the preferred choice for families across North Texas.
At the heart of our mission is a simple truth: every child deserves a future filled with possibility. We exist to inspire deep community investment in Dallas ISD because we believe that when a child feels seen, supported, and excited to learn, the world is opened.
