These life changing organizations could help more children and their families if they had greater funding and volunteer support.

Why OnePercent for Education?
- Educationally focused nonprofits with measurable results are underfunded.
- Many students are subject to stressors that impact healthy brain development, leaving them unprepared to focus on academics.
- Students experiencing multiple Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACES) are more likely to fare poorly in school, leading to dropping out and being unprepared for a career.
- Dynamic nonprofits augment student success in many ways including providing tutors, mentors, after-school activities, family supports, restorative justice, programs in the arts and more.
- Students receiving these services tend to stay in school, graduate and pursue further educational options that provide enhanced employment and career opportunities.
