Revenue model

1. Corporate Partnerships & Sponsorship: Enseña Chile's primary revenue stream comes from long-term partnerships with corporations and foundations (BCI, Empresas Copec, Collahuasi, SQM, EY, INACAP, LarrainVial, SalmonChile, DHL, Blumar, Collahuasi, and others) who provide financial support, volunteer programs, and in-kind resources. These partners fund the core leadership program, extension programs, and operational costs.
2. Individual Donations: The foundation actively fundraises from individual donors via its donation platform (ensenachile.donando.cl). The 'Hazte Socio' (Become a Partner) campaign invites monthly contributions to support the work or specific programs. The foundation's stated goal is to impact 1 million students by 2027, driving donor engagement campaigns.
3. Program Fees & Government/Institutional Grants: Enseña Chile generates revenue through formal agreements with government-linked educational service providers (SLEP - Servicios Locales de Educación Pública) and municipal/DAEM educational offices. Partnerships with Mineduc and SLEP Chiloé involve structured collaborations that may include public funding components.
