December’s meeting of the College Station ISD (CSISD) school board meeting included the annual report from the district’s education foundation.
Director Teresa Benden says since 1999, almost $12 million dollars has been raised for students and teachers.
Among multiple funding sources thanked by Benden, was CSISD employees contributing about one-fifth of the foundation’s annual revenue through payroll deduction.
Benden said the foundation’s “50 Men Who Can Cook” event has raised $1.8 million dollars in 16 years.
There is an addition to the foundation’s list of services and programs. Benden said $20,000 dollars in seed money will be spent on students in CSISD’s animal science programs.
