Impact: Key stats
“Man Up Teacher Fellowship, in partnership with several institutions, recruits and trains highly effective male teachers of color who can earn a teaching certificate or master’s degree at no cost. The organization fights poverty by providing students, particularly male students of color, access to demographically similar teachers—which has been shown to increase academic achievement and social emotional development. Man Up created over $2.70 in estimated poverty-fighting benefits for each dollar it spent. Partnerships with other organizations provide Man Up participants with Praxis exam preparation, professional development, and opportunities to move into leadership roles.”
