Pathways to Impact

Our innovative work is:

• Advancing Whole Child Wellness & Learning
• Building Inclusive Communities
• Driving Community Partnerships for Impact
• Transforming Systems for Sustainable Change

We are advancing whole child wellness and learning by championing programs that nurture physical, emotional, and social well-being, ensuring every child has the opportunity to thrive in school and in life. 

• School wellness programs that provide nutrition education, movement breaks, and mental health resources 
• Access to basic needs (healthy snacks, hygiene supplies, clothing) so students can focus on learning 
• Research translation; turning evidence that “healthy students learn better” into actionable school practices 
• Student‑led health initiatives that empower youth to advocate for their own well‑being 

We are building inclusive communities by centering our work in equity and belonging, creating affirming spaces where diverse identities are celebrated and every child feels seen, heard and affirmed to be their authentic selves. 

• Collaborative events that bring families, schools, and local businesses together
• Training and resources for educators to foster inclusive classrooms 
• Cross‑sector partnerships that break down silos between nonprofits, schools, and community organizations 
• Outreach campaigns that celebrate diversity and uplift local voices 

We are driving community partnerships for impact by collaborating with schools, local businesses, and organizations to design initiatives that strengthen communities and expand access to resources. 

• Seed funding for joint projects that unite schools, nonprofits, and businesses around shared goals
• Resource‑sharing that elevate local partners while expanding student and family access to services
• Community‑driven initiatives that thrive through collaboration
• Infrastructure for long‑term partnerships, ensuring collective impact is measurable, scalable, and sustainable

We are transforming systems for sustainable change by looking beyond immediate programs and focusing on systemic solutions that shape policies, practices, and culture to create lasting improvements in education and public health.

• Efforts that reshape policies impacting student health and opportunity 
• Strategic convenings that unite schools, nonprofits, and businesses around equity goals 
• Long‑term initiatives that shift culture and structures, not just programs
