The Project Twelve Organization of the Month for May is Teach for America!

I've wanted to be a teacher for as long as I can remember. As an education major in college, I fully understand the importance of an enriching education, and I also fully understand that each and every child deserves the opportunity to learn. Learning can't happen without great teachers. Teach for America was founded in 1990 by college senior, Wendy Kopp.  TFA is the "one of the nation's largest providers of teachers for low-income communities, and [has] been recognized for building a pipeline of leaders committed to educational equity and excellence." In order for  youth and teens to grow into confident, successful young adults, we need a nation of excellent teachers. Teach for America is making a difference, and I'm proud to support them this month!

Keep dreaming big!
