The Denton High School Family Assistance Foundation (also known as Denton High Cares) provides financial and other assistance to members of the Denton High School Family in their times of need. When a member of our community has nowhere else to turn, we want to be there, by paying medical bills, car payments, rent, mortgage, utilities, or other bills. To make it possible for us to do this, we host or sponsor fundraisers throughout the year and we accept donations anytime.
Since our formation in August 2014, Denton High Cares has awarded over $204,000 in grants and scholarships to members of the Denton High School Family. Through our application process we assess each need and award grants to applicants who meet our grant criteria. Since 2019, we have also awarded scholarships to 11 Denton High School students to help them achieve their dreams of obtaining education beyond high school.
Thank you for your support of our mission and of the Denton High School Family. Learn more about us at www.dentonhighcares.com.
To provide financial or other assistance to members of the Denton High School family (current and former students, faculty, staff, and their families) in times of medical or other crises.
We are led by a volunteer board of directors and do not have any general or administrative expenses. The vast majority of funds raised will be applied to grants and scholarships, while a small portion will be used to pay expenses for fundraising events. The more we raise, the more we can give!
Our grants are given as an equal opportunity to all and we do not discriminate against any individual, employee, applicant, volunteer or client on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, gender, sexual orientation, age, disability or status when considering applications for grants or scholarships.
