What is a REACH Box? The most elite, helpful care package a college student can receive: food, hygiene and school supplies, packed by EFF and put in the hands of students who asked for help.
Put your name on the moment a student almost walked away.
Students rarely leave college all at once. It’s a bill, a hold, an empty fridge, a hard week. REACH is where they turn first. Your logo on the box they open. Your name on the screen when they learn. We do all the work.

REACH made the news. Watch the story of the EFF Campus REACH Project, the boxes and the students behind them, then imagine your brand in the next one.

Your name where students are
On the opening screen of a REACH Workshop ("in partnership with"), on a tour stop's graphics, or on a Freebie Monday post, depending on what you sponsor.
Recognized on REACH and EFF
Named on this page and on Esther Funds Foundation's website and social media, with your permission.
Your team on the ground
Employee volunteers at a tour stop, packing care packages, or leading a workshop on what your people know best: money, careers, wellness.
Impact you can report
Totals after every sponsorship: workshops held, students reached, items given, campuses visited. Never a student's name or data.
A real 501(c)(3) partner
Esther Funds Foundation is an IRS-verified 501(c)(3) public charity, EIN 93-4917509. Gifts are tax-deductible as the law allows, and you get a written acknowledgment for every one.
A cause students feel
First-generation, low-income and minority college students, many at HBCUs and in the South, the ones closest to not finishing.
What a sponsor never gets.
This is why students trust REACH, and why your name is safe on it.
Student data is never shared or sold. Not to sponsors, not to anyone.
Sponsors never buy a place in Freebies or in scholarship listings. Those stay honest.
No ads on crisis or emergency pages. 988 stays on every page.
Every gift is recorded in EFF's books and reported back to you.
