Your belief in 10,000 Degrees and your support over the years have been critical to the educational and career success of our students. We have shared many milestones together, and today, I invite you to join us in celebrating our biggest milestone yet.
I’m excited to share with you that MacKenzie Scott, through her foundation, Yield Giving, has made a transformational $42 million gift to 10,000 Degrees.
I wanted you to be one of the first to know, as this gift would not have been made possible without you.
Inc. magazine is breaking this momentous news today – we invite you to share the article with your community.
This gift is a testament to 10,000 Degrees’ unmatched track record of delivering outstanding graduation outcomes for its students, which are double the national average!
This new grant will enable 10,000 Degrees to further lean into its mission to close the educational opportunity gap and support more students from low-income backgrounds to, through and beyond college.
We are grateful to have you by our side as we enter this new and exciting chapter in 10,000 Degrees’ history.
Tomorrow, there will be a full press release being shared with national news outlets, and we expect more media coverage to follow. We will be sharing those links as they come on our social media channels. Stay tuned!
With deepest gratitude,
Kim Mazzuca
President & CEO
