CityBridge Foundation supports high-performing organizations dedicated to creating great public schools and results for students in our nation’s capital.  Our effort to identify partners is based on experience gained from our founders’ former best-practices research businesses:  We learned that right ideas and solutions exist.  Our job is to find them, invest in them, and help to scale excellent work to reach as many children as possible.     

The Foundation does not accept unsolicited proposals requesting funding.  Instead, we proactively seek out organizations best able to solve problems we have identified.  Although we are always expanding our practitioner network and learning from new approaches to education, we do not have the staff capacity to evaluate unsolicited grant proposals.   Consequently, and with real regret, CityBridge will not be able to respond to unsolicited funding inquiries or proposals.
