The Open Society Institute-Baltimore’s Education and Youth Development Program aims to increase the knowledge and skills of Baltimore’s children and youth through improved public education and enhanced after-school and summer programs, so that they can become successful citizens, workers, and parents. Ineligibility Criteria:Please be aware that our funding is for Baltimore City exclusively. Also, OSI-Baltimore generally does not fund individual after-school programs, but concentrates its out-of-school time funding on city wide efforts to improve the quality and quantity of programs. Below are links to organizations where you may be able to find information about possible funding opportunities. Baltimore’s Safe and Sound Campaign The Family League of Baltimore City Association of Baltimore Area Grantmakers National Summer Learning Association Maryland Out of School Time Network Purpose and Priorities:The Education and Youth Development Program has the following funding priorities:
•Keep children connected to school: pre-k through graduation. Public education is the only opportunity program offered to all American youth and is critical to the futures of city children. The program supports advocacy, technical assistance and systemic reforms that ensure that all children can attend and benefit from public education. Current attendance efforts bring public agencies, City Schools, community organizations, parents, teachers and students together to reform policies and practices that impede regular school attendance and to make schools engaging and welcoming. •Support school reform efforts to create new schools. Baltimore’s drop-out rate is testimony to the fact that its schools do not meet the needs of more than 30% of its students. To change this reality, OSI-Baltimore’s Education Program focuses on efforts to create new, innovative schools–especially for students who are likely to leave without graduating. The program is currently looking to develop and fund school models that will “accelerate” both on-track and off-track students’ progress through high school. •Expand opportunities for learning when school is not in session. The hours after school, on weekends, and during the summer are crucial to healthy youth development. As it has over the past ten years, the program will provide advocacy, technical support and grants to increase the quality, quantity and sustainability of out-of-school time programs in Baltimore and Maryland.
