Bridge City High School Alumni Foundation become 501 (c)(3) nonprofit, seeks scholarship donations

The Bridge City High School Alumni Foundation has become an official 501(c)(3) organization. This opens up new opportunities to better serve current and future alumni of Bridge City High School, ensuring that the legacy of excellence continues to thrive.

The journey to becoming a 501c3 organization is both challenging and rewarding. For the Bridge City High School Alumni Foundation, it began with a vision: "To better serve our current and future alumni of Bridge City High School."

Founding members dedicated countless hours to research and understand the intricacies of nonprofit status. They navigated through paperwork, legal requirements, and regulations that seemed daunting.

Support from local community members played an essential role in this process. Their encouragement is helping fuel the foundation's commitment to excellence.

One of the primary advantages is tax-exempt status. Donations are now deductible for donors, encouraging more contributions to support future projects. Those who wish to donate receive a tax deduction for 2024 if done by Dec.31, fostering generosity within the community.

Grants from federal and state programs now become accessible which can further enhance the Foundation's initiatives to enrich the lives of students at Bridge City High School.

Being recognized as a charitable organization reassures potential supporters their contributions will be used effectively in targeted fields like nursing or welding programs. This trust can increase donor engagement and foster lasting partnerships in the community.

Through scholarships and grants, the foundation aims to help lift some of the financial burdens on students pursuing excellence in their ongoing education. By engaging alumni and local businesses in philanthropic efforts, it seeks to create lasting partnerships that will enrich the school's programs. The vision includes not only immediate assistance but also sustainable growth for generations of Bridge City graduates.

The Bridge City High School Alumni Foundation has a remarkable track record of success stories that inspire both current students and alumni alike. Many graduates have gone on to excel in diverse fields-be it Education, Legal, Medical, Business, Philanthropy, Music, Art, or Industry and many others. One Bridge City Alumni was bestowed the National Horatio Alger Award for outstanding Americans who exemplify dedication, purpose, and perseverance in their personal and professional lives.

In-class workshops led by experienced alumni offer invaluable insights into navigating their chosen industries.
