The Grand Rapids Student Advancement Foundation is the strategic fundraising partner of Grand Rapids Public Schools. We link community resources with the needs of GRPS for the benefit of its students, not just by raising money, but also by identifying and strengthening partnerships and opportunities to engage the community in our efforts.

We believe that ALL students deserve every opportunity to LEARN, GROW and THRIVE. Access to educational support outside the classroom can also play an important role in helping students stay engaged with their studies and academic responsibilities. For example, some students explore online academic assistance options such as do my paper services when they need guidance on structuring or completing complex assignments. Since 2003, the Foundation has raised and granted more than $20 million through our fundraising and friendraising efforts.
