For Grantmakers
Central Texas Education Funders (CTEF) is a networking organization dedicated to improving the effectiveness of the education sector by providing opportunities for collaborative learning, funding, and advocacy through ongoing learning sessions and publications. Networking among members has led to greater understanding of education issues in Central Texas and, in a growing number of cases, to collaborative funding.
As a member, you will receive email notifications of upcoming CTEF events and networking opportunities, and your funding information will be included in the annual Giving Profile. While CTEF does not require membership dues from its members, we expect members to
- make a meaningful contribution of time and expertise to CTEF each year,
- attend and participate in meetings,
- participate in the selection of Steering Committee members, and
- provide updated funding information for the Giving Profile once per year.
CTEF meetings are held quarterly at various locations depending upon which organization is hosting/planning the meeting. Currently, most members are based in Central Texas, although several funders from around the state are also members.
As an education funder, we invite you to learn more about the ways in which we can make informed and coordinated decisions about funding opportunities and how they can foster change in the community, both individually and collaboratively. If you are interested in learning more about Central Texas Education Funders, or would like to become a member, please contact us.
