When a group of Placer High School parents, faculty and administrators joined together in 1989 to create the Hillmen Foundation, they launched one of the earliest public school foundations designed to bridge state funding gaps and enrich educational opportunities for students. Today, more than $800,000 for grants and scholarships have literally made the difference in the lives of Placer students and our community.
Thanks to all of the generous donors, civic groups and businesses over the years, here is a look at the impact of the Hillmen Foundation: |
