Be a Teammate, Change a Life

Cornerstone’s Teammate program pairs donors with students to help in achieving their educational goals. Individual teammates make a financial commitment to their student teammate for one or more academic years, while students commit to their best academic work and provide updates throughout the year. In becoming a teammate, you are taking a hands-on role in the transformation taking place here.

To find out more about becoming a Teammate, contact Gayle Gaskin at ggaskin@cornerstonephiladelphia.com or 215-724-6858 x233
