East Harlem Tutorial Program

About East Harlem Tutorial Program

East Harlem Tutorial Program Inc centers its giving on East Harlem Scholars Academy, with three recent awards to the same recipient for OSC enrichment and replication support across 2023, 2024, and 2025. That pattern shows a sustained relationship rather than isolated project funding. The 2024 grant was $4,982,870, followed by $2,372,996 in 2025 and $2,165,288 in 2023. The foundation’s grantmaking lines up with its broader work in K-12 education, after-school programs, college access and success, teacher residency and professional development, literacy, and STEM. Its active programs also point to an education pipeline approach: paid teacher residency with a subsidized Master’s degree, coaching and professional development for residents, and College Scholars support for enrolled college students. Together, those programs suggest the foundation funds both school-based enrichment and the staffing and student-support systems around it. Across the recent grants list, the work stays local and New York-based, with recipients in New York City and East Harlem. The foundation operates at a sizeable institutional scale, with annual grants above $9.5 million and total assets above $135 million, but the recent awards show a concentrated focus on its own community and affiliated education initiatives.

What East Harlem Tutorial Program Funds

A central theme is replication and scale support for school programming. East Harlem Scholars Academy received $4,982,870 in 2024 for OSC enrichment and replication support, indicating that the foundation funds growth and strengthening of operating models, not just direct service. Teacher preparation is another core area. Its East Harlem Teaching Residency provides a paid residency with a subsidized Master’s degree from Hunter College, weekly coaching, professional development, and guaranteed prep periods, linking workforce development with K-12 education. Postsecondary persistence also appears in the College Scholars program, which gives enrolled college students annual scholarships, laptops, book stipends, and ongoing academic and career support. That combination ties college access to completion support rather than one-time aid. The active program list also includes literacy and STEM in its broader focus areas, reinforcing that the foundation funds academic enrichment alongside student supports and educator development.
