Making a difference with Arizona tax credits by:
Elevating Kids
The IBE Foundation believes true growth comes from building a child’s inner confidence. In school, confidence means feeling a sense of belonging without fear of standing out negatively. However, many low-income students lack access to essential resources that support this confidence.
Engaging Kids
The IBE Foundation helps students engage more fully in their education by funding extracurricular activities. While schools focus on academics, many lower-income students miss out on essential experiences beyond the classroom. By bridging this gap, the foundation enriches education, fostering deeper involvement and connection in school.
