Steppingstone Foundation - Hartford
The Steppingstone Academy Hartford is an academic enrichment and preparation program with a strong, gender-fair, multicultural curriculum.
Mission: The Hartford Youth Scholars Foundation is dedicated to strengthening the city of Hartford by developing and implementing academic programs that increase college access for Hartford schoolchildren. HYSF's first initiative, The Steppingstone Academy Hartford, prepares highly motivated students for admission to and success at Connecticut's top independent high schools. By increasing educational opportunities, HYSF supports the development of a vibrant and productive community, making Hartford a better place in which to live, work, and raise a family.
Snapshot: The Steppingstone Academy has three locations: Boston, Philadelphia, and Hartford. Boston uses PORTAL, KEYSTONE, and GENERATIONS. Philadelphia and Hartford use GENERATIONS for fundraising. At the time of this story, HYSF had grown from 75 funders and community partners to more than 450, with 100 mentor candidates.
"We used to do this work in Excel. With GENERATIONS, it will be so much easier to get it all out."
