Corporate & Foundation Giving

Corporate and foundation partners have been impacting students in our community since our early years – contributing time, funds, and insight.

Partners in Education

Student Sponsor Partners has a strong history of partnerships with corporations and foundations that believe in caring for their communities, and their support has helped thousands of our students receive a quality high school education and mentorship since 1986.

In addition to financially supporting our work, our impact partners have funded studies to analyze the efficiency of our programs and pilot new ones to better serve out students. They bolster Student Sponsor Partners by encouraging their employees to participate as sponsors and/or as mentors, hosting employee-student events and career workshops, and contributing to employee matching gift programs.

Employees take on the roles of sponsors, mentors, donors, and advocates – and we are so proud to have these individuals in the lives of our students. To learn more about corporate and foundation involvement, please contact Ravin Radigan, Director of Philanthropy, at rradigan@sspnyc.org or 917-472-9514.
