Support from Lilly Endowment will support teachers and capital improvements to elevate student outcomes

A five-year proposal from Victory College Prep to improve literacy rates, increase college matriculation, and upgrade its facilities has earned new support from the Lilly Endowment with a grant of $11.2 million, an award that follows prior grants to VCP of $50,000 and $520,000 announced during the 2024-2025 academic year.

VCP’s newly funded plan will support co-taught classrooms in ELA and math, among other vital impacts, through the 2030 calendar year.
