We SUPPORT GCISD Schools
✭ Investing in Education ✭ Improving Our Community ✭
Our mission is to provide community-based resources in pursuit of excellence in education, teaching, and innovation in the classroom.
The Grapevine-Colleyville Education Foundation (GCEF) was founded in 1998 to support programs and opportunities that benefit Grapevine-Colleyville Independent School District students and staff. GCEF is a 501(c)3 non-profit, tax exempt organization that operates independently from the school district under a Board of Directors and two GCEF staff members.
During the 2024-2025 GCEF Prize Patrol, the Foundation proudly awarded 27 grants to our amazing teachers, totaling over $45,000! Thanks to the incredible support of our generous community, we continue to enrich the academics of our students, teachers, and classrooms. Together, we make a difference!
While public education tax dollars cover basic educational needs, the Grapevine-Colleyville Education Foundation creates opportunities that go beyond the basics through generous contributions and dedicated efforts.
