Greatest Good McDonogh
McDonogh's Signature Civic Impact Program
Greatest Good McDonogh teaches students from prekindergarten through twelfth grade best practices in service-learning, philanthropy, community engagement, and social innovation through integrated coursework and experiential learning.
The program is designed to inspire students to find their purpose, grow their empathy, and realize their power and potential to do the greatest good in the world.
Led by David Rothschild '82, the Rothschild Foundations—which are committed to advancing educational initiatives that inspire philanthropic and civic engagement—catalyzed the launch of Greatest Good McDonogh with an endowed commitment and partnership support.

Take a look! In this video, our students talk about what they accomplished this year and the positive impact Greatest Good McDonogh is having in the community!
Launching in the summer of 2024, Bridges at McDonogh is a transformational year-round, long-term program that will empower Baltimore City students ages 9-23 from Title I public schools with academic support, enrichment opportunities, and a pathway to college and career success.
