Grants from private foundations and private philanthropy are critical to THINK Together’s ability to provide quality programs statewide to students. Private philanthropy also funds special enrichment activities that would otherwise not be available to all students. Thanks to the generosity of the LA84 Foundation, a private non-profit foundation created out of the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics which is dedicated to advancing youth sports, THINK Together received a $76,000 grant to provide after-school sports programs at 16 middle schools in the Baldwin Park and Bassett Unified School Districts, and in the El Rancho, South Whittier and Little Lake City School Districts. Since the foundation’s inception, the organization has donated more than $200 million to Southern California communities, touching the lives of more than 2 million children in over 1,000 local sports programs.

THINK Together is serious about helping kids achieve!
THINK Together is making a difference in the lives of more than 100,000 California students. The non-profit organization's trained staff, dedicated volunteers and generous donors are providing extended learning time programs (after-school, summer learning, small group tutoring, early literacy, etc.) and resources to help these kids, their families and their communities achieve. Our programs, generally free for at-risk students and low-income families, are predominately available at public school sites across Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego and now Sacramento Counties.
