The SF Ed Fund listens to the needs of public schools, mobilizes the wider San Francisco community, and resources schools. By providing more resources, the SF Ed Fund addresses existing opportunity gaps, creating schools where students can thrive academically and social-emotionally and ensuring that the community feels confident in the promise of high-quality public schools.
Students who attended 70%+ of their high-impact literacy tutoring sessions grew 1-2 reading levels in 2023-24.
98% of educators agree that their volunteer made them feel more supported as an educator.
We provided $3.7M in resources to students, educators, and schools in 2023-24.
The theme for the 2023-24 annual report, All In for Educational Excellence, underscores the SF Ed Fund's commitment to rally our community to support San Francisco public schools, especially during a time of significant financial challenges. The San Francisco Education Fund provided nearly $3.7 million in resources to SFUSD in 2023-24, including high-impact tutoring, volunteers, corporate partnerships, and direct financial aid.
Through conversations with school leaders at SFUSD’s highest-benefit schools, the SF Ed Fund surfaced an urgent need for immediate interventions in the midst of the budget crisis: flexibility to foster a student sense of belonging within unique school communities, prioritizing solutions that strengthen academic outcomes, and creative thinking around staffing to provide and retain essential personnel at each school. This SF Ed Fund report, published in April 2025, captures the voices of those closest to the work and highlights both the challenges they face and the bright spots pointing the way forward.
