Statement of Purpose

Union County Education Foundation is a charitable organization dedicated to mobilizing community and business support for the students and staff of Union County Public Schools (UCPS). We believe children need energetic and excited educators, so we provide encouragement for teachers who want to go above and beyond to help students feel seen, heard and valued. We believe in Championing, Funding, Innovating, Advocating, Connecting, and Strengthening the people of public education. We believe in teacher ideas, teacher initiatives, and teacher innovation in order to create teacher inspiration. We believe when we empower educators to think and dream bigger, students can think and dream bigger. Thank you for joining us in Supporting Students and Encouraging Educators.
