About
Save Our Schools for Our Kids’ Mission is to “Become A Kindling Flame of Education for ALL Children!” We realize our mission by:
​
-
Consistently providing the best educational, financial, and social tools for a child to freely learn without deterrence or deficits.
​
-
Applying the “All children are geniuses’ model,” the first objective provides a multi-intelligent vertical learning approach to teaching that builds confidence in the student’s endless capacity to know and learn towards enhanced student performance and maximized academic achievement.
​
-
By engaging in rigorous contextualized teaching of financial literacy, planning, and wealth-building, students will experience a diverse family of instructional approaches by connecting foundational skills to occupational application for concrete learning.
​
-
Elevating social and academic student outcomes raised self-awareness and esteem.
"We believe all children can embrace who they are,
can define their future, and can change the world".
Who We Are
Founded in 2018 by Donald L. Greene, Jr., in New Haven, Connecticut, Save Our Schools for Our Kids (SOS4OK) is a 501c3 Non-profit organization whose mission is to provide financial and in-kind resources to public schools specifically directed at improving access to quality and inclusive student education. SOS4OK believes the public school system needs to be an inclusive educational eco-system that is focused, free, pluralized and meets the learning modality of each student for social and academic achievement.

What We Do
We provide grant funding opportunities for schools or education focused non-profit organizations that seek to make an out-of-the-box impact with an initiative, program, or training.
What Makes Us Distinct
SOS4OK is a funding and resource investment Foundation that looks for schools, organizations and even individuals to present proposals or grant funding opportunities that are creative, innovative and resolve a problem. While we look forward, organizations, schools and individuals with experiences, case studies or demonstrated programs that work, we are giving the opportunity for you or your school or organization to present to our leadership and board of directors a program that will be a solution and has the greatest potential to work.
We are asking you to be entrepreneurial in your thinking. If you are, we will fund and partner with you as well as work with you to find and secure additional resources to grow and develop your program or platform.
