  • DonorsChoose – For Public School Teachers

    DonorsChoose.org is a simple way to provide students in need with resources that our public schools often lack. At this not-for-profit web site, teachers submit project proposals for materials or experiences their students need to learn. These ideas become classroom reality when concerned individuals, whom we call Citizen Philanthropists, choose projects to fund.

  • Public Utility Commission of Texas - Relay Texas and STAP:

    In 1997, the Seventy-Fifth Texas Legislature passed Senate Bill 667. This law requires that the Public Utility Commission (PUC) of Texas and the Texas Commission for the Deaf and Hard-Of-Hearing (TCDHH) establish a program to provide financial assistance that will allow certain individuals to purchase specialized telecommunications devices. Persons who are deaf, deaf-blind, hard-of-hearing and speech-disabled who need special telecommunications devices in order to access the telephone network are qualified. The law was created to allow access into telephone network that is functionally equivalent to that enjoyed by individuals without a disability of hearing or speech. The Texas Universal Service Fund (TUSF) subsidizes the program.
