New York City’s business community has been a vital partner to The Fund for Public Schools, channeling an unprecedented level of private support to improve our city’s schools. Corporate partnerships are a powerful force behind our work, and the impact these partnerships have on our community and schools takes many forms. Your company can support vital programs such as Library REACH grants to revitalize public school libraries, as well as system-wide initiatives focused on innovating the classroom experience, supporting highly-effective educators, preparing students for college and careers, and more. For an overview of the various initiatives and programs The Fund has supported, please see our Annual Reports and read more about our vision and accomplishments to date.

Beyond financial support, companies can pursue strong relationship-building opportunities with students by getting involved in the New York City Mentoring Program. Mentors help students on the path to success by exploring potential career paths with them, facilitating conversations about goal-setting, providing advice on schoolwork and the college admissions process, and broadening students’ horizons by taking advantage of the city’s vast cultural resources. Partnering with a school is also a great way to provide valuable resources and expertise to public school leaders, and develop meaningful relationships within your community. We invite your company to join in this critical work to improve our city’s schools, and support the initiatives of The Fund for Public Schools.
