The Hillsborough Education Foundation works to encourage relationships between Hillsborough County schools and businesses and community groups.  These partnerships strengthen the learning experience for our students by contributing to the programs that are a part of the Foundation's five main initiatives. 

The Foundation hosts the Business Partnership Awards as a way to recognize and honor those businesses, organizations, and individuals who so generously go above and beyond to ensure the success of our students, teachers, and schools.  As our county continues to grow and faces new challenges, this support becomes even more vital.
