Eduation, art, and culture are critical in building our country’s working-class movement.
Your contribution to the People Before Profits Education Fund – through a donation or legacy gift – supports a public presence of classes, literature, journalism and speakers including from a Marxist perspective.
The Chelsea Fund for Education was founded in 1990. In the 21st Century, the Fund’s Board adopted the name People Before Profits Education Fund to better describe its mission.
Your contribution to the Fund is a concrete action to counter the omnipresent capitalist narrative of profits-first, racism, misogyny, homophobia, war-mongering, and greed.
Visit our Guidestar page for more information about the Fund. You can also find the documents of the Fund’s income and spending on ProPublica’s Nonprofit Explorer.
