About Us
The HASD Foundation has been providing grant funds to support the students and administrators in our district for over 20 years. To date over $600,000 has been awarded. The grants funded enhance the learning opportunities for our students. It also gives the teachers a chance to bring new and innovative ideas to their classrooms. Last fall the Foundation awarded grants for STEM Labs to all three elementary buildings, totaling over $30,000. The labs will allow hands on learning in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math. The labs will have the technology and tools necessary to facilitate lessons that go beyond standard textbook learning. The mission of the Foundation is to put ideas for enhanced education into action by funding innovative programs, broadening teaching and learning opportunities and encouraging community involvement. Below are ways you can get involved.

Our Why?
The Hollidaysburg Area School District Foundation was started to insure that today’s students will have additional opportunities to grow and succeed in a nurturing and caring environment. Members of the Foundation understand that learning is a life-long process and that knowledge is the foundation of learning. Our members understand that the schools of Hollidaysburg must continue to educate our students by providing opportunities for them to become responsible and productive members of society. The foundation is made up of your neighbors, friends, former classmates, and local business owners. Contributors direct their support to either our Venture Grant Program or Educator-in-Residence Program.
