Right now, it looks like dirt, shovels, and construction—but soon, it will become a space filled with laughter at recess, friendships after class, and students communicating freely in a place that feels like home.

The 2026 Saddles Up campaign supports the creation of a new playground and outdoor gathering space for students at Texas School for the Deaf.

For Deaf students, a playground is more than a place to play. It is where language grows naturally, confidence is built, friendships are formed, and belonging becomes part of everyday life. Some of the most important learning happens outside the classroom—in the moments where students feel seen, connected, and fully included.

Your gift helps create a space where students can gather, play, communicate in ASL, and simply be kids together. Every donation helps bring this vision to life. Help us build more than a playground. Help us build connection, confidence, and community.

Questions about donating or getting involved? We’d love to hear from you. Contact us at admin@tsdfoundation.org.

Thank you for supporting Texas School for the Deaf Foundation and helping create spaces where every child can learn, grow, and belong.
