Right to Succeed Foundation is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization with a mission to empower communities to create amazing public schools that help every child to succeed! We believe every child has a right to succeed and have access to a great public school. The Right to Succeed cause is realized through the work and resources of hundreds of individuals and dozens of organizations who have made the Right to Succeed cause their own. They have undertaken the work to create great schools in their communities and neighborhoods. The Right to Succeed cause focuses its efforts on: (a) building public awareness of the severe education crisis through speaking engagements, media, entertainment, and events; (b) helping communities to create vision about what is possible in public education by enabling communities to see and engage with great replicable school models; and (c) providing technical assistance and resources to help communities create the right conditions in their community to support and sustain great schools. Why is this cause so important? America is at risk. Fewer than 25% of children are getting the education and work skills needed to compete and obtain jobs that will pay them enough as adults to economically sustain themselves. We need modern schools in every neighborhood that eliminate the dropout rate and prepare students for the best careers and life.
