Partners In Education

“We believe education is the foundation of every thriving community. It’s where opportunities are created, values are shaped, and futures begin to take form. That’s why the work of Partners in Education resonates so strongly with us—because supporting our teachers and schools directly strengthens the fabric of Chapel Hill.”

“Last year’s 5K for Education was a powerful reminder of this connection. Being part of the Partner Village gave us the chance to meet so many passionate people who care deeply about making a difference. It demonstrated the impact that local businesses, educators, and community members can have when they come together with one purpose: to equip students with the tools they need to grow into the next generation of thoughtful, engaged leaders.”

“At Goldfish Swim School, our mission has always been about helping kids grow and be confident, both in and out of the water. By partnering with the Chapel Hill-Carrboro Public School Foundation, we’re able to support the incredible educators who pour their hearts into our children every day. It’s an honor to stand alongside them and contribute to a stronger, more connected community.”

“Improving quality of life in the communities we serve has been a primary goal at Pinnacle Financial Partners since the day we were founded, and investing in public education is one of the best opportunities to do it. The Public School Foundation gives us the perfect avenue for supporting our students, teachers and schools in direct and meaningful ways so we can build stronger communities where all our neighbors have the opportunity to prosper.”

“As business owners, we have a responsibility to our schools, teachers and children in the Chapel Hill-Carrboro community. Strong schools, plus a strong community = a strong economy. I am proud to donate to PSF because they know about the needs of our local teachers and students – and they know how to support those needs in unique ways.”
