Standing With the Work

Teach For Armenia’s impact is made possible by a community of supporters who believe that education is national infrastructure,and that serious challenges require long-term, disciplined investment.

Our supporters include individuals, families, foundations, corporations, and institutional partners in Armenia and across the diaspora. They stand with us not for visibility, but for results.

Funding Partners

Our funding partners provide the resources that sustain the Teach For Armenia National Leadership Program and the broader work of the Armenia Education Initiative. Their support enables us to:

  1. Recruit and train exceptional Teacher Leaders
  2. Sustain two years of full-time program participation
  3. Strengthen public schools in under-resourced communities
  4. Develop future leaders across sectors

This support is paired with rigorous accountability, transparency, and annual financial and programmatic audits.

Together, we work to strengthen education, leadership, and opportunity across Armenia.

A Shared Commitment
