Make a Difference
High-need schools lose up to 30% of their teachers every year. Your donation provides the stipends and supplies that make staying possible — and keeps students from losing the teachers who believe in them.
Choose your monthly giving level:
Provides a month of classroom supplies — the notebooks, markers, and printed materials a teacher would otherwise buy out of pocket.
Covers a full semester of classroom supplies for one teacher — removing a financial burden that pushes educators out of high-need schools.
Provides a partial monthly stipend that begins to close the pay gap driving teachers out of at-risk schools. Research shows financial incentives are among the most effective retention tools.
Fully funds one teacher's monthly stipend plus supplies — a complete support package that makes staying in an at-risk school a real, sustainable choice.
