In June 2013, Thomas Jefferson Partnership Fund (TJPF) launched "Campaign for TJ." The campaign was established to raise money for the TJHS renovation project. TJPF is a 501c3, "charitable organization that raises funds to meet TJHS' unique needs as a premier public science and technology high school."

During the preceding school year, Thomas Jefferson High School developed a partnership with Tsinghua University High School in Beijing. According to a 2014 Back-to-School TJ Partnership Fund newsletter, the partnership "will allow TJ to share best practices to assist them as they develop their own STEM models. These relationships help to fulfill a long-term goal of the school, that of sharing TJHS' uniquely successful approach to teaching science and technology with other schools in order to expand educational opportunities for students, no matter where they reside." China’s Tsinghua University contributed $300,000 to the capital campaign.
