Our Mission and Work Our mission is to help close the achievement gap by improving educational opportunities for students from low income households. In addition, we support educators through programs that encourage excellence and innovation in the classroom. How We Do It: Through the generous support of volunteers, partners and friends who share our belief that education and exposure are key elements in overcoming the effects of poverty, we: -Partner with schools and communities to provide enhanced educational opportunities that promote academic success, free of charge, to at-risk children from Kindergarten through grade 12. -Provide resources to families to address challenges that impede the academic success of their children. -Support underfunded classroom teachers to encourage innovation and enrich the quality of education for students. -Encourage excellence in the classroom by recognizing, rewarding and celebrating outstanding educators. We believe that a quality education affords students the opportunity to develop their God-given gifts and talents so they can impact the world. Noggin Educational Foundation is dedicated to making a difference in the lives of at-risk students, their parents and the educators who serve them.
