Investing in the Success of Arizona and Florida Students

Helios Education Foundation believes every individual in Arizona and Florida should have the opportunity to attend and be prepared to succeed in postsecondary education. In pursuit of our vision, we strategically partner to improve student academic preparedness across the education continuum and to foster a high expectation, college-going culture for all students.

In order to truly improve lives and strengthen communities through education, we view our role as much more than a grant-making organization. We are actively engaged in the communities we serve and strive to contribute our leadership, expertise and resources to improve educational systems and the success of students in completing a postsecondary license, certificate or degree.

Partnerships with Helios are cultivated and strategically aligned to advance the Foundation’s priorities within the following impact areas:

• Early Childhood Education

  Strengthening early childhood systems to enable more Arizona and Florida children, birth through age eight, to enter kindergarten ready to succeed and be reading at grade level by the end of third grade. Learn More

• Transition Years

  Facilitating rigorous high expectation academic environments, which help students successfully transition between the various stages of education, graduate prepared for college and career and foster the pursuit of postsecondary education. Learn More

• Postsecondary Success

  Providing academic supports critical to student persistence and aligning systems to improve postsecondary degree or certificate attainment. Learn More
