Teach For America's Impact in the Delta
TFA-Delta currently supports and develops over 520 teachers, also called corps members, who teach over 43,000 students in more than 150 high needs public and charter schools across the region. Additionally, more than 250 TFA alumni live and work in the region. Dozens of our corps members have been honored as their schools' Teacher of the Year, including Birdette Hughey, who was named the 2011-2012 State of Mississippi Teacher of the Year in just her second year of teaching. We continue to increase our impact in the region with the help of supporters like you. Your generous hospitality helps our teachers make a home here in the Delta and encourages them to stay beyond their two-year commitment.
The $5,000 Match
Thanks to a generous donation by an anonymous donor to TFA nationally, for every $5,000 this campaign raises, we will receive an addiitonal $5,000 in matching funds. We have started this online campaign in conjunction with members of several Delta communities who wish to help us bring additional energetic young teachers into local Delta communities.
