Strengthening Communities Through Schools

We envision communities in which race or zip code no longer predict educational outcomes, where neighbors collaborate to ensure that all children receive what they need to reach their fullest potential.

Invest in Equitable Education for all Children

Get Involved

Join us in the fight for educational equity, one community at a time.

K-5 students in NCCP’s after-school program got the chance to visit the Historic Wagner Farm as part of the Project Innovate curriculum funded by the Baxter International Foundation. There, they discovered how children worked, played, and innovated 100 years ago. The students had an amazing time exploring the farmhouse, meeting the animals, helping with farm chores, and playing games!  

Thank you, Baxter International Inc., for enriching the education experiences of North Chicago students and providing them with exciting new learning opportunities.

A huge thank you to our fabulous Grainger volunteers for assembling 350 Career Exploration Kits for the students of North Chicago! Each kit includes a storybook and six complementary activities that inspire students to explore careers such as firefighters, carpenters, astronauts, artists, chefs, and farmers. Tomorrow, these kits will be distributed to 1st grade students at Evelyn Alexander Elementary.  

In addition, Grainger assembled 500 more Career Exploration Kits in California and Missouri for their local schools! Thank you, #TeamGrainger, for your unwavering commitment to education equity and community empowerment, no matter the location.
