The Right To Succeed Foundation is a Los Angeles-based, non-profit organisation, which since 2010 has been campaigning to help communities to build 'dream schools'. It is not to be confused with the UK non-profit with the same name, Right To Succeed and very similar aims.

The Foundation's campaign has 3 stated aims:

  • to build awareness of what the Foundation calls the US's 'severe education crisis', through speaking, media, entertainment and events.
  • to promote ' great replicable school models' among communities. It could involve starting a new school, or reforming an existing one.
  • to provide help and resources to communities to help them support and sustain these 'dream schools'.
