By providing high-quality public education and access to higher education and workforce training and development, we will grow vibrant and diverse communities with thriving local economies.

We actively partner with donors on entrepreneurial strategies to improve educational opportunities across every school district. We advocate for proactive solutions chosen by local parents, educators, and residents. The foundations have invested nearly $24 million in scholarships and education programs in the last 5 years and will play a vital role in leveraging the public dollars necessary to lift underperforming schools to high levels of achievement.
