About Us
Our Mission
Championing Students' Success (CSS) is a Section 501 (c) (3) private foundation that was established in 2021 to support elementary schools serving low-income, predominately minority students by offering small grants to further their efforts
Why This Foundation Was Created
This Foundation was created to provide small monetary awards to schools making significant differences in students’ lives, especially those from families from diverse backgrounds and who are economically disadvantaged. Many schools that serve these students face extraordinary challenges and limited resources. By awarding small grants to schools serving diverse populations, the Foundation will be thanking them for their efforts, encouraging them to continue their good work, and providing an additional way to communicate their success to others. We hope others will join us in supporting this effort.
CSS does not accept applications for our awards.
