We do not Go It Alone. Neither Should You.
At the Each Child Foundation, we believe the most effective change happens when people and organizations stop working in parallel and start working together. Partnership is not an initiative or a tactic for us — it is the strategy.
We invest in strong organizations, trusted community relationships, and aligned systems because no single program can meet the full range of challenges children and families face. Real progress requires shared purpose, shared learning, and shared commitment.
Why Partnership Is at the Heart of Our Work
We have never believed that any single organization, no matter how experienced, well‑resourced, or well‑intentioned, can break the cycle of childhood poverty alone. The challenges facing children and families across the country are complex, intersecting, and deeply rooted. Addressing them requires a network of organizations, each doing what they do best, connected by trust, aligned around shared goals, and supported to collaborate.
We are building that network. And we want you in it.
Types of Partnerships We Seek
The Each Child Foundation partners with organizations across sectors, each bringing essential expertise and reach to remove the barriers children and families face. We look for partners who are deeply rooted in their communities, committed to evidence‑based practice, and aligned around the belief that coordinated support creates stronger, more stable pathways for children.
Nonprofit Service Partners
We collaborate with nonprofit organizations that provide direct services to children and families across our core focus areas, early learning and education, nutrition, housing, and healthcare. These organizations are on the front lines of community change, and our role is to strengthen their capacity, remove barriers, and support the conditions that allow their work to thrive.
If your organization is advancing meaningful outcomes for children and families and is seeking coordination support, funding connections, or a strategic partner committed to shared impact, we welcome a conversation.
Philanthropic and Foundation Partners
We collaborate with foundations and philanthropic leaders who share our commitment to improving outcomes for children and families. Together, we co‑fund initiatives, align strategy, share data and learning, and strengthen the broader ecosystem of support for children.
If you are a funder dedicated to advancing meaningful, measurable change for children and families, we welcome a conversation about how we can multiply our collective impact.
Government and Institutional Partners
We collaborate with government agencies, school districts, public health systems, and other institutional partners to advance the systems‑level change that community organization cannot achieve alone. These partnerships bring scale, policy influence, and institutional resources that strengthen the broader ecosystem of support for children and families.
Faith Community Partners
Faith communities are often among the most trusted institutions in underserved neighborhoods. We collaborate with nonprofit faith‑based organizations that are already supporting children and families, strengthening their capacity and helping them deepen their impact. All funded work must be non‑proselytizing and open to the broader community.

The Partnership Experience
Partnership is how lasting change is built.
At the Each Child Foundation, partnership is not a formality; it is the core of how we work. When you join us as a partner, you become part of a shared effort to strengthen the systems that shape children’s lives. We engage with you as a thought partner, a learning partner, and a long‑term ally in the work.
We share data and insights that inform strategy, create space for honest, forward‑looking conversations, and lift up the work you are doing in ways that strengthen the broader field. Your contributions are not transactions, they are essential to a collective effort to ensure every child has the chance to thrive.
Our approach reflects a commitment to transparency, mutual accountability, and relationships that endure beyond a single grant or project. Children and families deserve stability and stability grows from partners who show up consistently, learn together, and stay the course.
This is the partnership experience at the Each Child Foundation: steady, collaborative, and rooted in the long view of what it takes to create real, lasting change.
