Donate to Urban Choice Charter School
At Urban Choice Charter School, we are committed to the vision of Redefining Urban Education by inspiring our students, treating them as individuals and creating a community whose goal is excellence.
Urban Choice Charter School is not part of a management group, financial or business organization. The school does not have any formal partners that provide financial support.
The school relies solely on the per-pupil funding it receives, and a small amount of donations. Together these equal (only) approximately 2/3 of the amount students in the Rochester City School District receives. Your contribution matters.
Your gift to Urban Choice, no matter how large or small, will have a direct impact on a child’s life.
Urban Choice Charter School is a not-for-profit 501c(3) organization and as such, donations to the school are tax deductible to the extent allowed by law.
