Announcing Bright Minds Foundation Employee Giving Campaign

HCPSS and Bright Minds Foundation, the education foundation of HCPSS, is excited to announce the launch of the new Employee Giving Campaign. Bright Minds works to address critical resource and opportunity gaps faced by HCPSS students and educators. This campaign will support important initiatives across our school system, including staff & teacher grants, early childhood literacy, and classroom resources. Your participation will directly impact the lives of our students and fellow educators, enhancing educational experiences throughout our school system.

You can donate via easy payroll deductions or one-time using a different payment method. Payroll deductions will begin on your payroll cycle starting in January 2025.

All givers will be entered to win weekly gift card drawings and receive a recognition pin. The elementary school, middle school, high school, and department with the largest percentage of participation will receive a $250 wellness grant to spend how you would like.

Please join us in supporting Bright Minds and their work for HCPSS students and educators!
