Today, our educational system works well for far too few children in the united states. This failure not only deprives millions of children of a legitimate pathway to pursue gainful employment and a purpose-filled life, but it is also a threat to the wellbeing of our nation.to address these systemic challenges, city fund invests in and supports city-based nonprofit organizations dedicated to increasing the number of high-quality public schools in their cities and otherwise improving outcomes for all children. City fund supports nonprofits that share its mission in three core ways: advising; funding; and convening. (continued on SCH.
