Support our Crisis Response Fund

The Richmond Public Schools (RPS) Crisis Response Fund was established in 2023 as the Trauma Healing Response Fund. Over the past two years, it has become a critical lifeline for RPS students, families, and educators—offering essential resources like grief counseling, financial assistance, and community care when needed most.

Thanks to the generosity of donors like you, the fund has brought hope and healing to hundreds of families facing unimaginable crises. Yet, the need continues to grow. From the devastating impacts of gun violence to the lasting effects of grief and loss, too many in our community are navigating challenges that no one should face alone.

The Crisis Response Fund is vital to Richmond’s safety net but can only continue with your support. Your gift today will help us:

• Respond immediately to emerging crises.
• Sustain ongoing care for families in need.
• Invest in a more resilient and hopeful future for our students and their families.

Together, we can ensure that healing is possible, hope is within reach, and no community member is left behind in their time of need. Thank you for standing with us in this mission of care, compassion, and unwavering support.
