Project Title: Educational Access Fund
Project Description:
Through our Educational Access Fund, the Frazier continues to prioritize Title 1 funding for school field trips and create equitable paths of access for Louisville youth and families. As we increase the quality of our program offerings, we also acknowledge that there is an increased need from the audience that we serve. The increased demand for programming reflects the success and expansion of our educational and community-based initiatives. We continue to grow our partnerships with local youth-serving nonprofits, who partner with us for camps, family days, and exhibitions. We work with Big Brothers Big Sisters, University of Louisville, and YMCA to ensure that children and students have equitable access to our programs, camps, and field trips, and nonprofits like Louisville Grows, the Food Literacy Project, Adelante Hispanic Achievers, and Play Cousins Initiative for family days and holiday programs. The Educational Access Fund ensures free access for Title 1 schools and expands outreach to youth-serving organizations, such as YMCA Safe Place and Americana World Community Center, deepening the museum’s mission to make history accessible to everyone. This year more JCPS schools qualify for Title 1 funding than ever before, and our goal is to make sure that we can meet this growing need and deliver thought-provoking programing to our community. In 2024, nearly 3,000 JCPS students were able to visit the Frazier at no cost thanks to our title 1 funding and the Educational Access program.
