About
When RedefinED Atlanta launched in 2016, we were responding to a clear and urgent challenge: far too many students in Atlanta lacked access to the kind of public education that helps young people thrive. And too often, a child’s zip code, not their talent or potential, determined the quality of their schooling.
We came together with a shared belief that all students deserve a high-quality education and that achieving this requires bold action, meaningful collaboration, and deep community investment. Since then, we’ve worked alongside families, educators, school leaders, policymakers, and advocates to expand opportunity and fuel lasting improvement across public schools in Metro Atlanta.
Our work is rooted in equity and driven by outcomes. We believe real change starts with listening to communities and investing in the people, ideas, and partnerships that make strong schools possible.
To transform Atlanta into a city where every student in every community receives a great K–12 public education.
We strive to serve as an example of what philanthropy can be when it partners with the community. We provide support to meet students’ and families’ different needs and remove barriers by concentrating resources to address inequities.
We seek truth, use data to inform decision making, and operate with honesty. We commit to identifying how we can improve and to making active changes ourselves, before seeking changes in others.
