Our Supporters
Our key program partners on the journey to educational equity are the Public Schools of Brookline and the Brookline Housing Authority, but Steps to Success would not be possible without generous financial support from foundations, public sources, businesses, and individual donors. This funding keeps our programs free of charge to over 300 Brookline students from low-income families every year. We are truly grateful to ALL of these institutions and individuals for supporting the mission of Steps to Success.

Program Partners
Steps to Success is part of a unique public-private partnership between the Brookline Housing Authority, Public Schools of Brookline, and STS, Inc. The Partners worked together to determine that in order to best serve the needs of our students and families, we need to provide programs that are holistic, coordinated, and comprehensive. This ensures our students are receiving the supports they need during school, after school, and at home. Thus, the focus of each Partner has been clarified to provide programs from sun-up until sun-down. Ultimately, an investment in the Partnership is an investment in a better and stronger Brookline.
