The Hills Foundation is a not-for-profit organization of community members whose goal is to provide additional financial support independent of the Half Hollow Hills Schools District. The Foundation intends to raise funds and develop resources for educational items, which are not normally part of the school budget, such as: cultural arts projects, capital projects available for use by the general community, general scholastic enrichment and teacher/student exchange programs. Its objective is to enhance cooperation and understanding while encouraging innovation and creativity in meeting the challenges facing the public education system.
