Budget & funding

Ways schools fund SOCW programs

We've worked with Title I coordinators, PTA boards, and corporate sponsors to structure programming that works within your existing budget.

Title I Funds

Our literacy programs qualify as supplemental educational services. We can help you document program alignment for Title I reporting.

PTA / School Budget

Many PTAs fund SOCW book fairs and author events as enrichment programming. We provide all invoicing documentation needed.

Corporate Sponsorship

We connect schools with corporate partners seeking MWBE-certified, community-impact programming to sponsor.

Grants

We're a registered nonprofit-adjacent vendor, making us compatible with many literacy-focused grant programs available to NYC schools.

Classroom Crowdfunding

We've worked with teachers using DonorsChoose and other classroom funding platforms to bring SOCW books and programming in.
