City Fund was born from the frontlines of transforming urban education.

Our leaders are innovators who led groundbreaking reforms in some of America's most challenging school systems. We had a bold idea: take hard-won lessons from those successes and use them to increase educational options for kids in cities across the country.

Vision

Every student deserves a great public education.

Mission

We want to dramatically change life outcomes for students in poverty in every large city across the country by empowering local leaders to lead change in their communities.
