This report answers the questions:
- How can philanthropy be more effective at deploying its limited resources to help reform and improve our school systems?
- How can philanthropy help break the cycle of persistent inequality in access and opportunities among underserved students in our communities?
Authors Dr. Kevin Welner and Ms. Amy Farley offer concrete strategies based on two recommendations from Criteria for Philanthropy at Its Best: The deliberate focus on addressing the needs of students from marginalized communities that will, in turn, benefit all students; and the support of efforts to find long-term solutions to the education equity crisis in the U.S through advocacy, organizing and civic engagement.
