WiSH Education Foundation Seeks Grant Underwriter
WiSH supports programs and initiatives in the William S. Hart Union High School District that are not funded by tax dollars alone.

Grant funding is an integral part of any foundation’s budget and WiSH has been very successful because we have a great mission and we make a difference in the classrooms.

Unfortunately, the WiSH Education Foundation lost the underwriter for our grant program.

If your company is willing to help us continue this program through your donation and sponsorship, we would be greatly appreciative! Please contact Executive Director Amy Daniels at wish@hartdistrict.org.
