Children from low-income households face many challenges that keep them from
learning in school. Your support helps break down and remove these learning barriers
so ALL children can be successful. Your support is helping to level the playing field
for student success.
Children are affected not only by their school environment, but by all that happens out of school. Family stability directly impacts how a child learns and performs in school. Your support provides resources to help families become and stay stable.
