We believe in teachers.
The Educators’Lab(oratory)
We’re on a mission to serve our teachers. In order to shape the future our students deserve, we must create the conditions for educators to thrive. We advocate for educators, include them in dialogues shaping the future of education, invest in their ideas, and create programming and opportunities to support our teachers so they might drive change as local catalysts.

Our 4 Pillars of Action
We believe the best way to invest in our students is to invest in our teachers.
There is no change in education without investing in the expertise of educators. For every opportunity, solution, innovation, or idea, a teacher is at the heart of its implementation. We believe it's critical to design spaces and experiences that support teachers to do what they do best: make a difference for young people.

The Educators’ Fund: Investing in Teachers
Impact happens when we invest in teachers' ideas. Through micro grants and startup style programming, we enable educators to drive meaningful change in communities, increase student learning outcomes, and demonstrate the transformative power of teachers to the world.

Teacher Catalyst Programming
We provide teachers with place-based pathways to advance educational initiatives. We work with specific schools, districts, universities and education systems to facilitate, design and implement programming that ensures teacher-catalysts are supported in-house to drive positive change.

Strategic Partners
From the future of work to climate mitigation, from civic engagement to responsible tech and regenerative economics, we create spaces that connect educators with the causes they care about. We partner with organizations and translate impactful ideas for the education space. By bridging organizations and teachers, we spark the collective action needed to create systems change.

Storytelling Lab
Teaching must be seen as a valued profession, and society must trust in its teachers. For this reason, we think it's critical to use storytelling and media to both capture and showcase the amazing work of our teachers. Through storytelling partners and innovative content, we shine a light on the impactful work of teachers and spread their ideas for how we might improve conditions for those in the profession.
