Bio
Jessica Rauch is President/CEO of The Generation Project, an innovative nonprofit that expands opportunities for low-income students by providing donors unprecedented control over their giving. Rauch and co-founder Eli Savit (both Teach For America alumni) launched The Generation Project in September 2009 to inspire philanthropists at any income level to support underfunded K-12 public schools. Through the online community at www.thegenerationproject.org, donors fund and share philanthropic gifts, connect directly with schools in need, and track their personalized impact. The Generation Project is currently open to Title I schools in six geographic regions.
