Paterson Education Fund is a not-for-profit organization in the civic and social sector, based in Paterson, New Jersey. Founded in 1983, its mission is to mobilize community action to ensure that Paterson Public Schools help all children achieve high standards. The organization collaborates with administrators, teachers, students, parents, and other community members to cultivate a college-going culture and to provide information and tools that support monitoring and advocacy for improved student outcomes. Its work aims to build a constituency for systematic school reform by elevating the importance of high standards and quality education for every child. The nonprofit operates with a small staff, reflecting its localized focus. In 2023, Paterson Education Fund launched the Negahneewin Reading Series for the 2023-2024 academic year, an initiative announced in connection with a Welcome Back Celebration at the Paterson Library Commons.
