How to Raise $5,000 for Your Classroom?

Imagine what education would be like in the United States, if every teacher was financially empowered to spend $5,000 in their classrooms every 3 months…..

I Am You

Well before my days as a recruiter and social entrepreneur, I started in education, I worked as a Teachers Assistant, Spanish Teacher, and even worked in Special Education. I understand the plight that many teachers experience.

Problem NO Problem

Teachers love the job, and they are stuck with empty promises about more money for classroom budgets. Many of the teachers start out gung ho, they dip into their own pockets to pay for supplies, computers, and even musical instruments. The human cost is insurmountable. Companies would never ask their CEO to pay for his own computer, or his iPhone; so why are we asking our teachers to do just that? Why do we have such high expectations for education results when we are not empowering our teachers to be at their best. “Proper Preparation Prevents Poor Performance“….Let’s invest in our classrooms, and empower our teachers to help our children excel.
