The Learning Forward Foundation is looking for new members with diverse backgrounds in fundraising or supporting effective professional learning to expand our team. The foundation is a group of Learning Forward volunteers who raise funds for grants and scholarships and award them to other Learning Forward members to advance meaningful professional learning — for example, for the Learning Forward Academy. Over the past 35 years, the foundation has designed and implemented scholarships and grants for 75 recipients. Since 2006, the foundation has awarded over $450,000 in scholarships and grants. We also support awardees on their professional learning journeys through Touchpoint conversations, one-hour phone conversations for reflection and support conducted throughout the length of the grant. Awardees engage in structured conversations with Learning Forward Foundation members
