Completed Project
Teach for America Bay Area, with Fundación MAPFRE‘s backing, is running the organization’s project which seeks to ensure a high-quality education for all children, regardless of their economic status.
In order to carry out this project they work on developing the talent and leadership skills of teachers in collaboration with the heads of schools in each initiative which helps them become better role models for their pupils.
The organization carries out the following tasks: increasing the number of teachers in the area, placing them strategically in order to have the greatest impact on pupils, improving teacher support and development, mobilizing participants in order to create the conditions for more excellent schools.
Teach for America was founded in 1990 and works in schools throughout the United States. Since it began, they have formed a community of 53,000 leaders who have confirmed that education can indeed change lives.
