Helping GRPS Students Achieve

Believing all students deserve the chance to succeed, the Student Advancement Foundation has raised almost $8 million since 1993 to provide Grand Rapids Public Schools students the educational tools and enrichment experiences they need to learn. We link community resources with the needs of our city’s students, not just by raising money, but also by identifying and strengthening partnerships and opportunities to engage the community in our efforts.
