A National YouGov Survey on Public Opinion of Brand Presence in Schools

The Untapped Trust Advantage

Why Brands Win by Showing Up for K-12 Education

ABOUT THE STUDY

As brands prioritize trust, community connection, and measurable impact, traditional sponsorship models may no longer be enough. At the same time, K–12 schools across the U.S. face growing financial and operational pressures that threaten essential programs and student experiences.

This national study, conducted with YouGov, explores where these challenges intersect — examining the role schools play as trusted community institutions and how families view brand involvement in supporting them.

The findings reveal a clear opportunity: schools represent a powerful, underutilized channel for brands looking to build authentic trust and meaningful community engagement.
