The mission of the Albany Fund for Education is to enhance opportunities for students to learn, grow, and succeed. Equity of opportunity is important to us, as is supporting the unique needs of different learners.
We are focused on bringing opportunities to students, regardless of their socio-economic status, and supporting teachers and staff as they craft successful ways to open up the world for their students.
We believe:
- A high-quality public education is fundamental to an equal, civil society.
- Socioeconomic circumstances should not limit students’ ability to achieve academically.
- Support from the community can encourage creativity and intellectual curiosity.
- We can ensure contributions are directed towards enriching the education of Albany’s children.
