Help Us Strengthen Democracy by Ensuring All Students Are Prepared and Motivated to Participate in Civic Life
Make a donation to DemocracyReady NY today
DemocracyReady NY was founded in 2018 as a project of the Center for Educational Equity at Teachers College, Columbia University. To intensify our statewide impact, we separated from the College in June 2025 and now operate under a fiscal sponsor as an independent organization. As an independent group, we depend on your donations. Please help us create the conditions for high-quality civic learning to reach all students across New York State, build the future of New York’s students, and strengthen our democracy.
