TFA has an exceptional record of providing an excellent education for kids in low-income communities. Based on your website 16 million American children face the extra challenges of poverty, an increasing body of evidence shows they can achieve at the highest levels. Motivational speaker Zig Ziglar would always say that failure is not a person its an event. That’s where I come in… as a member of the TFA Corps I am deeply committed to the success of the children in my class and within the school. It takes a community to raise a child. That’s because we all have a stake in the success of these children.
