Corporate and Foundation Giving
F&M's Reckoning with Lancaster project's social justice and historical reconciliation
work is grounded in visible community impact, and the learning outcomes woven into
the three-year project are designed to foster trust, connection and collaboration
between F&M and the city, merging coursework and residents' lived experiences. Advancing the Mission
Franklin & Marshall’s relationships with corporations and foundations serve the College’s
mission of advancing knowledge and discovery by students and faculty. Corporate and
foundation grants are one of the most effective means of supporting education, research
and scholarship so that F&M can continue to enhance the academic programming that
distinguishes the College at the leading edge of liberal arts education.

Pennsylvania's Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC) Program offers businesses
an opportunity to direct a portion of their state tax dollars to educational improvement
organizations such as Franklin & Marshall, which use the funds to support innovative
educational programs that directly benefit students in Pennsylvania's public schools.
The two approved educational programs operated by Franklin & Marshall and its higher
education and public school partners — Pennsylvania College Advising Corps and Poetry
Paths in the Schools — impact the educational experiences of more than 12,000 elementary,
middle and high school students annually. The programs' benefits extend to more than
18 schools in 14 districts spread across Adams, Franklin, Huntingdon, Centre and Lancaster
counties.
