Connecting Our Community and Schools.
The Richardson ISD Foundation is uniquely positioned to link community resources with the diverse needs of RISD’s students, teachers, and staff. We partner with community organizations and individuals to harness their passion, time, talent, and expertise to support programs and initiatives that help move the district closer to meeting its North Star Goal of every student, teacher, and leader meeting or exceeding their growth goals.
