Support Our Vital After School & Summer Programs

The Collaborative for Educational Services (CES) provides engaging school-year and summer programs that help young people build academic skills, confidence, relationships, and life skills—all while having fun.

Our programs create a safe, supportive environment where students can learn, explore their interests, connect with caring adults and peers, and discover new strengths, promoting deeper learning.

CES After School programs are offered in communities across Franklin, Hampshire, and Hampden Counties.

The After School Program is in great part funded through state grants and community donations. Your gift will help us sustain the programs in all our program locations and provide scholarships to students from low-income families. Click here to learn more about our After School programs.

Each program location raises community funds to support activities for enrolled students, and you can designate your gift for a specific location by indicating your wishes in the “Additional Information” field.
