School fundraisers

Support the School

Two BASIS Plano campaigns are open right now. Both are run by the school — not by the Booster — and both go straight to our teachers and their classrooms.

Annual Teacher Fund School

Investing in Excellence

Our teachers do more than deliver an advanced curriculum — they mentor, inspire and build the relationships that help students grow in confidence and character. The Annual Teacher Fund is how BASIS Plano attracts and keeps them.

Every dollar given to the BASIS Plano Annual Teacher Fund stays at BASIS Plano. It is distributed as performance-based compensation to teachers at the discretion of School Leadership, once fundraising expenses are deducted. Donations are tax-deductible to the full extent of the law.

Your employer may double it

Many employers match charitable gifts dollar for dollar. Ask your giving-programme administrator whether yours matches the Annual Teacher Fund.

Questions about the fund go to the school’s development team at Gifts@BASISschools.org.

A school fundraiser, not a Booster one

The Annual Teacher Fund is run by BASIS Plano and BASIS Ed. It is not affiliated with the BASIS Plano Booster: donations are taken on the school’s own platform, and the Booster does not receive or administer any part of your gift. Please budget for it separately from Booster giving.

Annual Teacher Fund School

Sponsor a Room. Support a Teacher.

Our teachers are the heart of BASIS Plano. By sponsoring a classroom, office or learning space, you are making a direct investment in the educators who inspire, challenge and support our students every day.

Where your gift goes

100% of Annual Teacher Fund donations go directly toward performance-based compensation for our teachers.

Your gift helps the school recruit, retain and reward exceptional educators, ensuring the highest quality learning experience for our students.

How you’re recognised

Your sponsorship is recognised with a personalised plaque displayed at the entrance of your sponsored room throughout the school year.

A school fundraiser, not a Booster one

The Annual Teacher Fund Room Sponsorship Program is run by BASIS Plano. It is not affiliated with the BASIS Plano Booster: sponsorships are taken on the school’s own donation site, and the Booster does not receive or administer any part of your gift. Please budget for it separately from Booster giving.

Looking for the Booster’s fundraisers?

The Booster runs its own campaigns — membership, the Playground Shade Fund, programme funds and Blaze Craze. They are separate from the two on this page, and they are budgeted separately too.
