Make A Difference
Why Connect to a School?
The reality in Arizona, and across the Nation, is that a disproportionate number of children do not have access to resources they need. Oftentimes, a child’s only resource is their school, where they connect to education, structure, food/nutrition, clothing, transportation, belonging and adult/mentor support. Connect to a school to make a difference!
What is at risk for our 1.1 million, K-12 students?
Target Your Resources
Strategically target key needs at a school to leverage your resources for greater impact
Support Children
Know that you are directly impacting a local school to increase opportunities for children
Build Connections
Connect with other leaders who care and are working for positive change in your community
Maximize Your Impact
Your support is maximized year over year as multiple grades and generations attend and graduate
Target YOUR Support!
Because there is a school in EVERY neighborhood, targeted school support can impact outcomes for children in every neighborhood of Arizona. School Connect rallies community stakeholders around local schools from business, nonprofit, faith-based, and community/civic groups to leverage the assets of the community. By working together, we can change the future of Arizona!
