The organization operates our changemakers program with a goal of developing a diverse group of leaders that can explore ways to improve public education in baton rouge. Additionally, we operate our education as a civil right program, which includes events, activities and key speakers.

We also provide community grants to a number of aligned and innovative organizations across the city.

Each line starts at 100 in 2021, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2021, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
