Charter School Loans
Self-Help is proud to partner with innovative charter networks like Helix Community Schools.
Charter School Financing for quality, equitable education
We support public charter schools that create and expand quality educational opportunities for students who are poorly served by existing options, especially students of color, English language learners, students with learning differences, and those in low-income and rural communities.
In our lending, we keep equity at the forefront to ensure that the most vulnerable students have access not just to a high-quality education, but also to appropriate social and emotional support.
