A New Collaboration for Student Success in Puerto Rico

The Roberto Clemente Foundation has teamed up with Everfi to enhance opportunities for students throughout Puerto Rico. This partnership aims to equip young learners with essential skills in financial literacy, fostering community support, and creating pathways for future success.

The alliance reflects a shared commitment to empower youth to develop the knowledge and confidence necessary to thrive in school, work, and life. Both organizations, driven by the belief that every young individual deserves a chance to reach their full potential, are set to collaborate on various educational initiatives.

Through this partnership, students will have access to a wealth of resources that will not only include financial education but will also open doors to scholarships and investment accounts such as 529 College Savings Plans. The goal is to merge education with tangible opportunities, thus reflecting Everfi’s guiding principle of "Learn.Advance.Build."

Roberto Clemente, a legendary figure in baseball and a symbol of excellence and service, believed in creating brighter futures for others. His legacy continues to inspire initiatives that empower youth to achieve their dreams. Approximately 30 schools across the United States bear his name, demonstrating the lasting impact of his commitment to education.

Luis Clemente, co-president of the Roberto Clemente Foundation, highlighted the significance of the partnership, stating, “Roberto believed that true success meant creating a brighter future for others.” Similarly, Roberto Clemente, Jr. emphasized their shared goal of investing in the next generation, hoping to help more young people envision the possibilities for their futures.

Everfi has been working with educators and school leaders in Puerto Rico since 2018, providing training, curriculum support, and educational experiences aimed at preparing students to make crucial decisions in their lives. Ray Martinez, CEO of Everfi, expressed his excitement about this new alliance, saying, “What excites me most is helping more students visualize the pathway between what they learn today and what they can achieve tomorrow.”

The partnership between the Roberto Clemente Foundation and Everfi is poised to deliver long-term commitments to expand access, celebrate achievements, and create new opportunities for youth throughout Puerto Rico. Looking ahead, both organizations aspire to unite educators, community leaders, non-profit organizations, philanthropic partners, and private-sector collaborators around a common goal—helping students make connections between their educational experiences and future opportunities.
