Spotlight on nominee Boston Partners in Education

Nominee Boston Partners in Education

Next in our series of posts about new Charitocracy nominees, we have nominee Boston Partners in Education, nominated by donor misadowling. They ensure Boston Public School students are equipped with skills, opportunity, and confidence to succeed in the classroom and beyond. You can find their web site here.

A few words on Charitocracy

If you're late to the party, here's how it works. Donors pool their monthly contributions, as little as $1. The cause with the most votes each month wins the pot. No matter how much or how little you contribute, each donor at Charitocracy gets one vote. This is where charity meets democracy.

But as you may have heard, Charitocracy rides off into the sunset at the end of 2023. Regardless, keep voting each month. Our monthly grants will get bigger and bigger throughout the year as we empty out our coffers!
