Burbank Business Partners was created by a group of business and community leaders dedicated to elevating their commitment to the educational efforts of our schools by developing broad-based, sustainable, multi-level support.
The success of our community depends upon the strength and quality of our schools and Burbank Business Partners is committed to engaging the entire community – businesses, teachers, parents, and students alike – to build partnerships that ensure we are not only meeting, but exceeding, the needs of our most precious commodity: our children.
Our continuing goal is to increase awareness of the ever-present needs facing our schools. By increasing the community’s interaction and investment in our local schools, we can build a culture of support that will enhance the educational opportunities of today’s students and form a strong foundation for future generations.
