Hand Up Curriculum Subsidy for School Districts

We believe that all K-12 students should learn essential personal life skills as a core part of their education.
Until curriculum to teach these skills to students is a required part of the American education system, we are supporting school districts across the country by funding personal life skills curricula.

Investing in students nationwide by donating to school districts for essential personal life skills curricula helps ensure that students gain the critical skills needed for success in
school, relationships, careers, and life.

As this McKinsey & Co. report shows, the skills that students will most need
in the future world of work are those that fall under the category of
essential personal life skills.


We work with a select list of companies that provide quality video-based curriculum for grades K-12, and when they identify a district that would like to contract for their programming but cannot pay for it in full, we help to subsidize a portion of that cost. We then encourage those school districts to establish community business and parent partnerships to help sustain the funding needed to prioritize the annual investment for that curriculum.
