Thanks to the generosity of hundreds of contributors, the program is having a positive impact by recognizing, honoring, and supporting exceptional students with the potential to become outstanding teachers. Previous recipients are making a difference in classrooms in Connecticut and across the country and in leadership positions at the local, state, and national levels.

Your support is important because the larger the endowment grows, the
more we can accomplish for deserving students.
