Operation THunderjoy
Now in its 10th year, Operation Thunderjoy matches the families in our school that need the most with families in a position to help. Last year we helped 50 families and our goal this year is to help just as many.
Operation Thunderjoy is our annual chance to go beyond "needs" and provide our wonderful families with some "wants."

About Our School
Travis Heights Elementary is an innovative, inclusive, and incredibly sweet neighborhood school to nearly 500 students, 65% of whom are living below the poverty line. Home to one of the largest refugee and immigrant populations in Austin ISD, we are rich in culture but many of our families lack basic necessities. We work with many partners to provide aid to these families but Operation Thunderjoy is our annual chance to go beyond "needs" and provide our wonderful families with some "wants."
DOnate
Donating to Operation Thunderjoy is another great way to support this tradition.
Any amount helps.
