Miami, FL – September 24, 2024 -The Education Fund has supported public school teachers and students for four decades, raising $86 million since the 1984-85 school year. Programs like the Teach-A-Thon have been essential for raising funds to support academic programs and teacher professional development.

This year, 150 volunteers – Public School Champions – from leading companies like Wells Fargo, Assurant, Florida Power & Light, and Blackstone, will step into the shoes of a teacher for a lesson and to help raise funds for public school students. At the Teach-A-Thon launch at Miami Dade College – Padrón Campus, each company presented a donation of $40,000 or more to The Education Fund in honor of its 40th anniversary.
