TEMPLE, Texas — Throughout the school year, five area businesses donated funds to assist in the Temple Education Foundation’s Innovative Teaching grant program. The businesses are HEB’s My Community Investment program, the Temple/Belton Board of Relators, the BBVA Foundation, Leadership Temple through the Chamber of Commerce and GrandeCares, a Grande Communications employee giving program, according to the TEF.
Grande employees can donate their time and a percentage of their pay to the Grande Cares Club, which in turn helps fund non-profit organizations in their service areas. GrandeCares is a private non-profit that helps create an “Internal culture of volunteerism and community service” for Grande employees.
