¡Dé un regalo del corazón donando a TRTF hoy!
Thank you, members of the Texas Retired Teachers Association (TRTA) for joining us during Foundation Month in November, a time to honor the charitable work done by our partner organization, the Texas Retired Teachers Foundation (TRTF).
Your astounding generosity has helped TRTF raise $74,000 of our $100,000 goal!
We are so very close to meeting our goal and today, we would like to make one final plea with the members of TRTA during this holiday season to donate to causes that directly impact Texas educators of the past, present, and future.
Thanks to the members of TRTA, TRTF has distributed $800,500 to educators of the past, present, and future all across Texas since 2008!
Please help us continue our worthy and vital programs by making a donation today as a gift to honor a family member, friend, or loved one. After you have made your donation online, you may print and mail this lovely holiday card to the person you have honored, spreading both holiday cheer and the joy of helping Texas educators! What a wonderful way to celebrate the season and a person you care for deeply.
