About Helios Education Foundation

Helios Education Foundation exists to support postsecondary attainment for all students, with a focus on low-income and historically underrepresented communities in Arizona and Florida. Since inception, and driven by our core beliefs of community, equity, investment, and partnership, we have invested more than $350 million in initiatives to improve third-grade reading, increase college enrollment, and boost postsecondary attainment in both states.

For 20 years, we’ve been committed to advancing educational excellence for all students and stand firm in our core beliefs:

  • We believe in community and that education can change the lives of individuals and strengthen communities.
  • We believe in educational equity and that ALL students, regardless of zip code, deserve access to a high-quality education.
  • We believe that education is an investment, not an expense, and comes with the expectation of a return.
  • We believe in partnership to tackle challenges and improve student outcomes. Collaboration is key.

There will always be varying perspectives, but we can all agree that supporting our students is paramount to the future of our communities.
