What We Do
teachers make a lasting impact in the lives of their students."
We all have that one teacher who made a profound impact on our life. It is the mission of the Nassau Education Foundation to support the teachers of Nassau County, Florida with classroom grants, so they too, may play a significant role in shaping the lives of our students.
The teachers, who are awarded classroom grants through the Nassau Education Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit, want to raise the bar within their classroom, provide their students with an innovative learning experience and see their students achieve his or her highest potential.
Since 2015, we have contributed more than $500,000 in grants to teachers in every school in Nassau County.
