RECOGNITION
A study by Galllup, In 2017, indicated that 29% of teachers acknowledge being recognized for their work. Teachers do one of the most important jobs in society and they should be celebrity far more often, if not everyday! Our goal is to turn celebrating and recognizing teachers into a year round, sustained effort. To achieve this we create community-centered programming to increase professional respect for educators and to improve how they are recognized on an ongoing basis. Two of those strategies are our Take a Teacher to Lunch and One in a Million Programs, through which we have already recognized thousands of teachers.

SUPPORT
The current delivery of instruction model (1 teacher in front of 30 or more students) has not been innovated in around 100 years. What system would we allow to stay the say for 100 years? Million Dollar Teacher Project creates programming to drive more support and resources directly into classrooms to increase teachers capacity to effectively serve their students, improve student achievement and boost teachers feelings of fulfillment in the profession. This is what led to the creation of our Classroom Support Team and Million Dollar Teacher Tree programs that directly impact classrooms. You can help us expand these solutions and create more through your donation.

COMPENSATION
The key to any innovation, and to successfully change a system, is sustainability. As MDTP grows we want our capacity to impact teacher compensation in creative ways to grow with us. The In Teachers We Trust Endowment Fund is our mechanism to, not only support innovative strategies to increase teacher compensation long-term, but to also offer emergency assistance to teachers experiencing hardships, offer scholarships to educators looking to further their education, offer basic needs assistance to students/families identified by teachers and much, much more. Our ambitious goal with this fund is to create an education endowment in all 50 states in the U.S.
