We are pleased to shine the spotlight on Jacobs! A trusted partner of the Fort Bend Education Foundation over the years, Jacobs continues to be among our top donors and event sponsors! This year, the company served as title sponsor for our 10th annual Sugar Shindig. Because of their generous support, the event netted an estimated $61,000 – the second highest amount in the event’s history – to benefit our Grants to Teachers and Schools programs! We truly value our partnership with Jacobs and appreciate their generous support in assisting us in creating new standards in fundraising.

Musicians are in the making at Malala Elementary School! Given a $1,486 teacher grant, the music teacher purchased 28 Makala Soprano ukuleles for students to use in music class. The students apply their knowledge of music theory while mastering the instrument. These future musicians have learned chord progression, individual notes, and performance etiquette. They have also gained show-ready confidence in performing in an ensemble. With enough practice, the students will also write their own ukulele songs through guided improvisation!
