Education

Students’ success in school leads to increased opportunities in work and in life.

Programs that support early success build a strong foundation for academic attainment and lifelong learning.

 

GRANTMAKING FOCUS

High-impact programs that support kindergarten readiness and early literacy.

Intensive strategies that support K-12 students’ academic success; and targeted programs that support persistence.

 

KEY INVESTMENTS

Grant support for Make Way for Books established its high-impact teacher and family-focused early literacy programs to Maricopa County.

A grant to the City of Phoenix brought AARP Experience Corps, an evidence-based, intergenerational volunteer tutoring program, to 18 elementary schools to support struggling readers in making progress toward third grade reading proficiency.
