San Francisco Education Fund

The public engagement program continues to engage community members in all 117 san francisco public schools as general volunteers, tutors, mentors and supporters. A subset of those schools is also involved in its corporate partnership program, circle the schools, and receive grants as a result.

The literacy program works in 5 high-need elementary schools. In each school, the education fund trains and places volunteers in classrooms to work one-on-one with students on their literacy skills. The education fund supplements those volunteers with direct grants to teachers and principals focused on improving literacy in their classroom or school, and uses data analysis to identify which individual students or groups of students need our support.
