Support Our Work
Every DC student deserves a great public school.
Education Forward DC is working to make that a reality and your support makes it possible.
Only about one in four students from low-income households in DC attends a high-performing school. We’re working to change that. Education Forward DC combines strategic investment, hands-on partnerships, and citywide coordination to improve schools, develop great leaders and teachers, and build the conditions where every student can thrive. Your gift helps us close the gap.
Education Forward DC is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Donations are tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law. EIN: 81-1823628.
