About the TorHoerman Law Teacher Support Grant
TorHoerman Law started the teacher support grant after learn about the financial struggles that local area teachers and students face having to purchase school supplies on their own. After learning this, we decided to team of with local area businesses & partners to raise money for teachers & students in need.
As an educator, how could you innovatively spend a $2,000 grant to improve your students’ educational experience?
Most of us have at least one friend or family member who has dedicated their life to educating our children; there are around 3.6 million full-time teachers in the United States. Did you know many of those teachers have had to use their own money to buy supplies for their students? These individuals are not required to do this but choose to anyway in order to ensure that their students have the best educational experience possible. On a teacher’s salary, which averages a modest $60k a year, buying expensive supplies for students is quite a sacrifice to make.
TorHoerman Law decided to help our teachers with some of this burden. In September 2018, the TorHoerman Law Employee Foundation awarded two $2,000 grants and four $750 grants to local teachers to alleviate the costs of supplies.
