Since 2014 individual donors, sponsors, and grantors have enabled The Empowerment Factory to deliver hundreds of after-school, in school, summer learning programs and special events for elementary children from schools in Rhode Island’s urban core. These programs have positively impacted more than 9,500 Low-Middle Income (LMI) youth, 90 percent from under-resourced communities. Our art based Social Emotion Learning programs blend creativity, self esteem and civic pride, providing children with the skills they need to be successful in school and life.

TEF’s generous sponsors and individual donors will make our continued engagement possible.

Everyone sees that our students’ and teachers’ success creates a powerful ripple effect felt throughout their families, schools, and communities. TEF wholeheartedly hopes you will continue to help us multiply this impact among the people we serve.

Since its founding in 2017, The Empowerment Factory has served 9,500 students, with partners across the state, including:

  • Rhode Island Department of Education’s afterschool online courses
  • COZ, PASA, RISCA, Groundwork RI and Crossroads RI
  • Providence, Central Falls and Pawtucket Parks Department

Individuals can support The Empowerment Factory with your donations, sponsorships, or providing a gift from your donor advised fund. Please consider us for your year end giving or consider making a monthly donation through our PayPal link.  Donations in any about are appreciated.
