WAYS TO GIVE
What starts here can change the world for Texas teachers and the children of Texas. ASTEF is about how educators are supported through funding scholarships, leadership and member projects. TSO members are the heart of ASTEF. ASTEF provides the funding to assist teachers as they transform the educational experience and create a lasting legacy of excellence. The children of Texas and Texas Educators will feel the impact of these changes for years to come and it started with generous donations from you. ASTEF thanks you for making this possible!
There are many ways to show your support for Delta Kappa Gamma and ASTEF from monthly contributions to leaving a legacy gift in your will. In addition to gifts of cash, checks and online gifts by credit card, there are several other ways for donors to contribute funds to benefit scholarships, leadership and projects. Have you thought about including convenient recurring gift options through bank draft, multiple year commitments through pledges and gifts of securities as well as estates and planned gifts? For more information contact Vice-President of Finance at finance.astef@gmail.com |
