Boston Partners in Education (BPIE), a nonprofit organization that provides Boston Public Schools (BPS) students with in-classroom tutoring and mentoring services, is in danger of pausing operations in the 2023-24 school year.

For nearly 60 years, our mentoring services have provided personalized academic and social-emotional support to over 1,000 BPS students annually, at no cost to them or their families. Losing these services is not an option for the students who rely on BPIE for support each year

With this urgency, we are launching an ambitious fundraising campaign, Raise Your Hand for BPIE, to preserve our mentoring programs and ensure they remain in BPS classrooms.

The majority of our revenue has historically come from corporate sponsorships and event giving, but both of those sources have seen dramatic shifts in the post-pandemic economy. For our programs to operate fully in the new school year, and to lay the groundwork for future sustainability, we must raise $250,000 by August 31, 2023, and an additional $250,000 before January 1, 2024.

If you believe in the impact of BPIE's work, please Raise Your Hand and make a donation today. Your gift will help ensure that our historic organization remains in operation, and that these critical mentoring programs continue to provide additional support to BPS students throughout the district.
