关于我们

Founded in 2015, Boston Schools Fund is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that leverages grant-making, partnerships, data, and policy work to advance educational equity in Boston by providing opportunity and access to high-quality schools, particularly to those most underserved. We envision a Boston where every child, regardless of race, ability, income, or neighborhood, attends a high-quality school that meets their needs as learners and allows them to lead choice-filled lives.

  • As shared by our founder and CEO Will Austin in our Friday weekly newsletter... Recently, Boston Schools Fund (BSF) has decided to wind down, closing with the end of our current strategic plan by June, 2025.? This decision was not made lightly, nor is it a reflection of a diminished need for resources and reform in Boston schools.?As BSF began planning for its next five years, we acknowledged the significant changes in the Boston education landscape over the past decade.?When given choices to reshape/”pivot” the organization to meet the new context, there were options, but all that would have required wholesale changes of our organization and even our mission. As a non–profit organization - which, I would argue, must provide mission-aligned, timely value - BSF has done its best with the season it had, and it is time for the resources and talent that drove BSF to find new places to make impact. We did the math and made a decision that I believe is?prudent and faithful to our mission and values.?We are setting aside funds to maintain our core commitments through the 2024-2025 school year to successfully close Fund II.?Even as we wind down, we will be actively supporting?schools through our?PEAK?program, transitioning?Boston School Finder, serving as a trusted source of information for the public and decision makers, helping our staff transition to new roles, and more.?And, yes, this weekly newsletter will continue to arrive in?inboxes?most?Friday mornings. While it is natural to feel loss, I am choosing to focus on what has been gained.?We woke up every day, for nearly a decade, working for one goal: more Boston children in high-quality schools.??And?we got to do that, for thousands of children and families, in every neighborhood.? I will have a lot more to say about the past, present, and future of Boston schools in the coming months, but I will start with a simple note of gratitude.?There is nothing greater than to be of service, and BSF has had the privilege to serve many people in the city of Boston for many years. Thank you, and to be continued.
