Empowering Families: How Outcome Tracker Supports the Chattanooga Future Fund
Empowering Student Success
In Hamilton County, Tennessee, building a stronger future starts with investing in students. The Chattanooga Future Fund is doing just that. Created as a college and career savings program for public school students in kindergarten through middle school, the Fund is more than a financial tool. It’s a symbol of hope for families and a resource designed to help children discover their strengths and envision what’s possible.
The Future Fund is one part of a larger vision built around four priorities: early childhood, literacy, pathways to prosperity, and long-term savings. It’s a community-wide effort. And behind the scenes, Outcome Tracker plays a key role in keeping the program effective and organized.
Tracking What Matters
As the Future Fund expanded, the team needed a better way to manage information. They wanted to track student enrollment, monitor school participation, and follow engagement across neighborhoods. Outcome Tracker made that possible with a flexible, secure platform.
Outcome Tracker allows them to manage sensitive data in one place. The team can confirm when accounts are activated, follow up on state matching eligibility, and answer questions from families with confidence. The data is clear, accessible, and actionable.
Converting Outreach into Impact
Reaching families is a major part of the Fund’s success. With Outcome Tracker’s built-in email functionality, the team can send targeted, timely updates to help more families participate.
Today, nearly 2,500 families are enrolled in the Chattanooga Future Fund. Over the next five years, the goal is to grow that number to 25,000 families. With real-time insights and efficient communication tools, Outcome Tracker is helping them get there.
Built for Collaboration and Growth
What makes Outcome Tracker especially valuable for the Future Fund team is its flexibility. The platform is customized to fit their needs—and the team at Outcome Tracker has partnered with them to refine and improve the system as the program expands.
Outcome Tracker’s responsiveness and mission alignment have made the difference. As a mission-driven organization, the Future Fund values partners who share their commitment to equity, access, and community-centered solutions.
Making Time for What Matters
Managing a program of this scale requires more than just numbers—it requires time. Outcome Tracker helps the Future Fund team maximize staff hours and stay focused on what matters most: the students and families they serve.
With Outcome Tracker, the Chattanooga Future Fund is making its vision a reality: connecting families to opportunity, preparing students for long-term success, and creating a future filled with promise.
