Education Alliance of Washoe County

Our Mission is to unite our community to illuminate and clear pathways for every Washoe County students’ brightest future.

Education Alliance works with many diverse state, city, community, civic, industry, and business groups in support of education. These efforts are directed at initiatives that bring together education with business and community organizations. Education Alliance’s governing Board is comprised of 17 dynamic business, community, and education leaders. Three permanent board members include the WCSD Superintendent, and the Presidents of the University of Nevada, Reno, and Truckee Meadows Community College. As a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, we rely on funding from charitable donations, grants, and support from the Washoe County School District, a long-standing relationship of more than 30 years.

For the 6th year, Greater Nevada Credit Union members and employees rallied to support Washoe County School District students and teachers with much-needed school supplies! Every notebook, pencil, and classroom essential helps students start the year ready to learn and thrive. Thank you, Greater Nevada Credit Union, for your continued generosity and commitment! Together we can do great things!

A heartfelt thank you to the NV Energy Foundation for their generous $20,000 investment in the Keep Kids in Class campaign.

This contribution strengthens our community-wide effort to help students overcome the barriers that too often keep them out of the classroom. Family Resource Centers are a critical part of that work, providing welcoming spaces where families can connect with support for housing stability, health care, food, clothing, transportation, legal aid, mental health services, and more.

When students' basic needs are met, attending school regularly becomes easier. They can stay engaged and build brighter futures that benefit our entire community. We are grateful to partner with organizations like the NV Energy Foundation that understand lasting solutions require collaboration, compassion, and a commitment to supporting the whole child and family.

We are thrilled to announce that the NV Energy Foundation is continuing its support of our Washoe County School District Middle School Engagement Program and Family Resource Centers!

Because of committed partners like NV Energy, we are making real progress in curbing chronic absenteeism and ensuring students stay motivated, engaged, and on track for success. In fact, just last year, 71% of WCSD schools improved their attendance — a powerful sign that together, we are turning the tide on a complex challenge.

Thank you, NV Energy Foundation, for investing in our students and our community!

When a community partner shows up, it matters. 💙 Meredith Williams and Brandi Ward from United Federal Credit Union visited our Washoe County School District Intervention Department to recognize the incredible work they do supporting students who struggle with attendance. They brought treats and presented their sponsorship—a meaningful boost for this student-centered work. Thank you, UFCU! 🙌

As the holidays wind down—the decorations come off the walls, batteries go into new toys, and leftovers disappear from the fridge—it’s a moment to pause and reflect.

The students in our neighborhoods rely on steady support all year long. When we help them stay connected and ready to show up, we’re investing in a stronger future for our entire community.

As the year comes to a close, a thoughtful gift helps ensure that support continues into the year ahead. You can give by visiting www.ed-alliance.org/donate

Imagine what changes when a student goes from missing 10 days of school to showing up consistently:
✅ stronger reading skills
✅ better mental health
✅ connection to peers
✅ trusted adults
✅ steady progress
✅ hope for the future
That’s what attendance unlocks. And it’s what your gift supports.
