Teach for America Inc.

Children growing up in historically marginalized and disenfranchised communities lack access to a broad spectrum of resources and opportunities, and attend schools that are not equipped to meet their needs. To address this, TFA's mission is to attract, develop, and support a diverse network of equity-oriented leaders- individually and in teams - committed to expanding opportunity for children from classrooms, schools, and every sector and field that shapes the broader systems in which schools operate. TFA does this by finding promising leaders; developing and cultivating the leadership skills and mindsets necessary for systems change through classroom teaching; engaging the individual and collective impact of those in the TFA network throughout their lifetime; and growing the organization by learning new capabilities to enable a path for transformative change
