Our network of partners is one of our greatest keys to success in fostering a national movement to expand opportunity for all students. Learn more about the different ways we partner with individuals and organizations.
The Power of Partnership
As an organization, we know it will take a broad and diverse coalition of change-makers to lead the effort to expand opportunity for all students. That’s why we look to individuals and groups to partner alongside us at every level of the system to help make a positive impact on students, classrooms, schools, and in turn, our communities and nation.
Our partners play a vital role in expanding educational opportunities for all kids. There are so many ways for partners to engage in our programs, at both the national and regional level.

Community Partnerships
We operate in over 50 regions across the United States. Each region has its own vibrant life and educational challenges, and so each of our regional offices develop a variety of relationships and collaborations within the community that reflect the local landscape and unique regional needs.
If you would like to partner up with a regional office, find the appropriate regional office’s contact information on their region website.
Public Funding Partnerships
Teach For America's work is supported by a number of public funding partners, including:
- Corporation for National and Community Services: AmeriCorps
- Department of Education Grants such as the Supporting Effective Educator Development (SEED) Grant Program and Education, Innovation, and Research (EIR) Grant Program
To learn more about how you can form a public funding partnership with Teach For America, please contact us.
School and District Partnerships
Our partnerships with schools and districts are at the heart of our work. We partner with thousands of schools and districts across in over 50 regions. Our partner schools and districts value the talent, leadership, and commitment of our Teach For America corps members and alumni. Our partner schools hire corps members to teach during their two-year commitment and beyond.
These partnerships are established on the local level. Find the appropriate regional office’s contact information on their region website.
