The Decatur Education Foundation is proud to recognize and thank our incredible donors and sponsors for their generous support during the 2025–2026 year.
Because of your investment, DEF has continued to create opportunities that enrich education throughout Decatur ISD. From funding innovative classroom grants and supporting literacy initiatives to celebrating educators and investing in student leadership programs, your generosity provides the means for us to fulfill our mission.
Every contribution—whether large or small—helps make a difference. Together, our donors and sponsors have strengthened classrooms, empowered teachers, inspired students, and supported programs that have a lasting impact across our district.
We are especially grateful for the businesses, organizations, families, and individuals who have chosen to partner with DEF through our sponsorship program. Your commitment to public education demonstrates what makes the Decatur community so special: a shared belief that investing in our schools is an investment in our future.
One of the most remarkable aspects of our donor family is that our highest level of giving comes from the very people our mission is designed to support. Our DISD teachers and staff serve as our Palladium Sponsor, demonstrating an extraordinary commitment to their colleagues, students, and schools. Their generosity reflects the culture of excellence, collaboration, and service that defines Decatur ISD.
As we celebrate another successful year, we are reminded that none of this would be possible without the support of our community. Whether you sponsored an event, donated to a program, contributed through payroll deduction, or supported DEF in another way, you played a role in helping us create meaningful opportunities for students and educators.
On behalf of the Decatur Education Foundation Board of Directors, thank you for believing in our mission and helping us continue reaching forward by giving back.
We look forward to recognizing our sponsors and donors throughout the coming weeks as we highlight the partners who make our work possible.
Thank you for your generosity, your partnership, and your commitment to the students and staff of Decatur ISD.
