Fund for Educational Excellence, Inc.

The Fund for Educational Excellence (The Fund) is an independent nonprofit organization working to close the equity and opportunity gaps for all students in Baltimore City Public Schools. We believe that a strong public school system is the foundation for the health and success of Baltimore. Founded in 1984, the Fund works as a trusted partner with the school district, students and parents, funders, advocates, and local nonprofits. The Fund strives to identify educational needs of complex issues, offer honest insight, develop creative solutions, and collaborate with a diverse group of community stakeholders to implement effective change. Our work offers a range of support programs and resources for Baltimore youth from early childhood through post-secondary education. The Fund is guided by a commitment to systemic change to reverse decades of public policy decisions that have disproportionately hurt and disadvantaged students of color. We are dedicated to making Baltimore City Public Schools a district where every child receives ample resources and support necessary to thrive academically and succeed in college, career, and life.
