About the CISDR Endowment

The Communities In Schools Dallas Region Endowment was founded in 2003 by ALON USA with an initial gift of $1 million. The Endowment operates as a nonprofit organization to provide financial support and long-term stability to expand CISDR services to address the needs of at-risk students in the Dallas community. Because the Endowment is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization, individuals, entities and corporations that contribute to the Endowment receive tax benefits.
