Students Served 1,552 Across all programs Total Raised $2.1M 2024 fiscal year Scholarships Secured $1.8M For college-bound seniors Program Efficiency 82¢ Of every dollar to programs From Our Executive Director A Message from _Dr. Sarah Okafor_ When I think about what Brightpath achieved in 2024, I don't think first about the numbers — though they are extraordinary. I think about a young woman named Destiny, who walked into our College Prep Program as a junior who had never visited a college campus, and walked out as a high school senior with a full scholarship to UC Berkeley. I think about the 312 seniors like Destiny whose trajectories changed this year because of the support of this community. The numbers, of course, tell their own story. We served 1,552 students across our three programs. Our After-School Tutoring program reached 1,240 students across 23 partner schools, with 94% showing measurable grade improvement by year-end. Our Teacher Training Institute trained 84 educators in 12 school districts, reaching an estimated 2,800 additional students through those teachers' classrooms. And our College Prep Program achieved an 89% four-year college acceptance rate for participating seniors — more than 20 percentage points above the national average. "Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire. In 2024, we lit a lot of fires." None of this happens without you. To our Luminary and Champion donors who made multi-year commitments this year: you are the foundation beneath the foundation. To our grant partners who trusted us with six-figure investments: we will continue to earn that trust every day. And to our individual donors who gave what they could — every dollar went to work, and 82 cents of it went directly to students. As we look to 2025, we are expanding our After-School program into three additional school districts, launching a new Family Financial Literacy component to our College Prep curriculum, and growing our Teacher Training cohort from 84 to 140 educators. The need has never been greater. Neither has our capacity to meet it. Thank you for being part of this work. Thank you for believing in these students before the world does.

Students who complete the full program have historically outperformed national averages by a substantial margin, and 2024 was no exception.

In 2024, we ran two full cohorts of our 8-week intensive training program, reaching 84 educators in 12 school districts. Curriculum covers trauma-informed teaching, culturally sustaining pedagogy, and evidence-based literacy intervention strategies. The ripple effect — 2,800 students reached indirectly through trained teachers — makes this our highest-leverage program per dollar invested. 84 Educators trained in 2024 12 School districts represented 2,800 Students impacted through trained teachers 2024 Financials Financial Overview Brightpath Foundation is committed to operational transparency.
