The Jim Ned Education Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization supporting innovative educational projects and activities that are beyond traditional funding and for which tax dollars cannot be expanded. Foundation funds will be used for educational enrichment programs such as innovative grants and programs to enhance student achievement, to recognize exemplary staff involvement, and to foster community support and involvement. We gratefully accept donations from individuals, families, companies and other entities to support our Jim Ned CISD teachers and students. All dollars stay local and are disseminated annually to teachers in the district.
