Areas of Funding
Fundraising Events
Think Together’s annual fundraising event, Raise A Hand for Education Benefit, is an opportunity for passionate individuals and corporations to come together to change the odds for kids through education. Think Together’s 2023 Raise A Hand for Education Benefit will return to a fully in-person model with intimate events in Los Angeles, Orange County, Coachella Valley and Bay Area
Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteers help us carry out our mission from the site level. We’re proud to work with our community, corporate and foundation partners to offer unique volunteer opportunities to create meaningful experiences for the students Think Together serves. Find out how you can help at [email protected].
GIVING OPPORTUNITIES
Private donations have a catalytic impact on the students we serve by funding program curriculum, organizational capacity and innovation. Think Together recognizes the importance of pooled philanthropy, which is why we established Think Giving Circle. Together, our supporters are changing the odds for kids.
You can join Think Giving Circle with an annual gift of $1,000 or a monthly gift of $85 by visiting thinktogether.org/think-giving- circle.
GOALS FOR 2023
• Increase access to college and career readiness opportunities, including industry field trips and internships.
• Partner with local arts organizations to bring robust, cultural arts education to students.
• Implement a new data and evaluation system to help us measure and report our impact on students.
