Chapter Philanthropy

Our chapter philanthropy, The Liberty Partnership Program (LPP), is a collaboration of 46 higher education institutions across New York State to support at risk middle and high school students in their academic, social, and emotional development. Through meaningful programs, students engage more fully in their education and are more likely to graduate from high school and continue on to higher education or stable employment. LPP connects schools and community partners to offer research-based interventions, including tutorial services, mentoring, socio-emotional counseling, career and college exploration activities, and enrichment, as well as support for students and their families. Tri Sigma helps with the hope to increase graduation rates for high school students at-risk as well as increase the number of high school students who graduate and enter postsecondary education. Tri Sigma at Marist maintains strong cooperative relationships with partner high schools, community based organizations, and other stakeholders to ensure LPP students' achievement of higher learning standards and satisfactory performance on statewide exams.
