ABOUT CIVIC BUILDERS
Civic Builders transforms children's lives and revitalizes communities by building inspirational schools for students in under-served neighborhoods. Dedicated to giving every child the chance to attend a great school, Civic Builders partners with the nation's best educators to create public charter school buildings for students in communities where the need is greatest. With twenty-three charter schools across the northeast, Civic Builders makes quality education a reality for over 11,000 students each year.
Because of this track record of success, Civic Builders was recently selected to incubate a national facilities platform, known as the Building Equity Initiative, capitalized by the Walton Family Foundation. This exciting initiative will deploy $250 million over the next decade in national investments that will dramatically expand the impact of charter schools across the country. This watershed initiative will expand access to great schools for under-served students across the country and create new spaces for community engagement, revitalizing and improving neighborhoods nationally.
