About Tomball Education Foundation
The Tomball Education Foundation is an independent, donor-facing 501(c)(3) nonprofit formed by community leaders, parents, local businesses, civic organizations and alumni to support Tomball Independent School District. The foundation was founded in 2017 and is tax-exempt (IRS 501(c)(3) designation processed in 2018).
TEF raises and distributes private dollars for innovative classroom projects, educator grants, student supports and district-wide programs. The foundation runs annual fundraising events (Boots & Bling, eTrain Celebration, State of the District), an employee giving campaign (Donation 4 Innovation), and recent grant rounds have supported STEM, literacy, assistive technology, mental-health supports and outdoor learning across Tomball ISD campuses.
