For 25 years, Achievement First has been making a lasting impact through education—and now, you can be part of it. We’re excited to launch our first-ever AF Impact Week! From February 5-7, we’ll come together to directly support key initiatives at our schools, creating even more opportunities for our students, educators, and communities to thrive. Join us in making a difference!

Why Your Support Matters

Every gift—big or small—helps provide our schools with the tools, resources, and opportunities our students need to thrive. Whether it's for after-school programs, class trips, or celebrations, your donation can make an impact and help us go further, together.

Participating Schools and Initiatives

Sixteen Achievement First schools opted to participate in AF Impact Week.
