By Degrees Foundation

Program Description

Since 1990, we've been a 501(c)3 nonprofit committed to helping more Des Moines students graduate from high school ready to pursue postsecondary education and fulfilling careers.

We believe education is a community effort, and we know it's much more than what happens in the classroom. That's why we support whole schools, families, and neighborhoods. Our work begins in kindergarten and follows students to and through high school graduation, ensuring they're prepared for postsecondary education and careers.
