College Success Foundation is an educational nonprofit headquartered in Bellevue, Washington, serving school districts in Washington state and the District of Columbia.
The foundation was formed in 2000 as the Washington Education Foundation by two former members of the state's Higher Education Coordinating Board,[1] Bob Craves [2] and Ann Ramsay-Jenkins, under the terms of the Washington State 2020 Commission on the Future of Post-Secondary Education created by Gov.
[4] In 2007, the organization widened its focus to include college prep and support services for students beginning in middle school,[5] and changed its name to reflect its broader geographic mission.
CSF advisors work directly in schools with high percentages of low-income students.
CSF collaborates with school districts to improve high school graduation rates and increase the number of graduates going directly to college.
