#Whywecelebrateeducation

The March For Education Foundation is dedicated to serving students and families in Connecticut who are in need of school supplies, community events, projects, and programs. Our mission is to ensure that every child has access to the resources and opportunities necessary to achieve academic success and a bright future.

Our Goals:

  • Provide School Supplies: We believe that every child should have access to the necessary school supplies to succeed in their academic pursuits. We aim to provide students in need with backpacks, notebooks, pens, pencils, and other essential supplies that they may not be able to afford on their own.
 
  • Host Community Events: We believe that strong communities lead to strong schools. We will host events that bring families, educators, and community members together to promote academic achievement and build relationships that will strengthen our schools.
 
  • Support Projects and Programs: We believe that extracurricular programs and projects are an essential part of a well-rounded education. We will support initiatives that provide opportunities for students to explore their interests and develop new skills.
 
  • Empower Students and Families: We believe that education is a powerful tool that can help break the cycle of poverty. We will provide resources and support to students and families in need to help them achieve academic success and reach their full potential.

Our Values:

  • Equity: We believe that all students, regardless of their background, should have access to the resources and opportunities they need to succeed.
  •  
  • Collaboration: We believe that working together with families, educators, and community members is the best way to achieve our mission.
  •  
  • Integrity: We believe in being transparent, honest, and accountable in all our interactions and activities.
  •  
  • Innovation: We believe in constantly seeking new and creative solutions to the challenges facing our students and families.
  •  
  • Empathy: We believe in approaching our work with empathy and compassion, recognizing the unique challenges that our students and families may face.
Why we celebrate education?
The March For Education Foundation understands the challenges of students that enter the educational system with the goals of achieving the American dream through higher learning. Our way of supporting those ideals is planning fun-filled experiences for everyone involved in creating a foundation in learning in a form of annual celebrations reinforcing the positivity of higher learning and those who take it seriously.

The odds are against students graduating
With very high college tuition, lack of funding for public schools, inadequate teaching facilities, social challenges and those who discourage educational values at every angle, our youth have now devalued the ideals of success through education and have found other means of obtaining financial and personal goals. But they do not understand how powerful a healthy educational background benefits in the political arena.

 Why a parade for students, educators and parents?
Think about the many parades geared toward a cause or mission we love, then think about how many are celebrating those who spend tireless hours insuring they prepare our children’s scholastic plans, insure our children are sent off to school prepared and those who work to insure a safe system for our children to get the knowledge needed to survive in the marketplace.
 
80% of the populations we serve are single parents with children who are struggling with the idea of sending their child off to school without the necessary supplies or support needed for them to continue their goals in a healthy manner. we are here to give relief to many of those families.
 
What is the festival design to do?
Our goal is to bring public officials, school faculty, business entities, community leaders, parents, and the great students of Connecticut together in a forum where the theme is educational excellence in our communities.
 
 With the guest speakers share topics of educational values and community leaders show their public concern for the atmosphere of youth receiving the best care while attending schools, we share community  resources/ that are in our communities that assist families with needs of products or services that are offered.
 
 Who do we serve?
While we invite the entire population of concerned people who understand the key to success through education  to join in our mission motivate enjoying the benefits of knowledge through books, we focus on students from Middle-school to College.
