Empowering Students to Stay in School and Achieve in Life.

In the span of a little more than 30 years, Communities In Schools has become the nation’s leading dropout prevention organization.  We have a unique model that positions a staff coordinator inside schools to assess student needs and deliver community resources and solutions that remove barriers to success.

Our mission is to surround students with a community of support, empowering them to stay in school and achieve in life.

 Press Release:

    Communities In Schools teams up with Procter and Gamble
         and musician John Legend to launch GIVE Education     
       
                      
                            

“By teaming up with P&G and Communities In Schools on the GIVE Education campaign, I can further support a
cause of great importance to me – ensuring that all kids receive a quality education, regardless of where they grow up,” said Legend. “All students deserve the chance to learn and succeed, but not everyone has the same resources available to do so. My work with GIVE Education will help provide additional resources to Communities In Schools so they can
continue to help the students who need it most.” 

On Sunday, July 31, a GIVE Education brandSAVER will be distributed in newspapers across the country, with discounts for P&G products. For each brandSAVER coupon redeemed, P&G will donate two cents to Communities In Schools to help deliver human, financial and community resources to students and their families. The P&G uncapped donation will be based on the number of coupons redeemed beginning July 31.
