The Home School Foundation's (HSF) vision is to see every homeschooling family have the resources they need to provide the best education they can for their children. Founded in 1994 as the charitable arm of Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA), HSF assists individual families homeschooling in the U.S. through very difficult circumstances by providing privately-funded grants to help with the cost of curriculum and other emergency needs. Through a variety of funds, HSF helps widows, single parents, families with special needs children, low income and military families, and those who have lost their homeschooling materials due to fire, flood or storm. HSF is a member of the ECFA and a recognized charity of the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC #10535).
