  • 2/20 Teach For America - Benefit Concert for Windham HS

    Benefit Concert for Windham High School

    Friday, February 20th, 5:00PM – 7:00PM, Student Union Theatre

    With live performances from UConn's own Husky Records, an artist collective on campus, and other acts including but not limited to spoken word, and UConn's best, Justis Lopez as the MC, our goal is for UConn to raise $500 for Windham High School! A large factor contributing to educational inequity is inequitable funding of schools, so every cent helps! Windham High School has let us know that all money raised will go towards their Unified Sports Program. Special Olympics Project UNIFY is an education-based project that uses sports and education programs to activate young people to develop school communities where all youth are agents of change – fostering respect, dignity and advocacy for people with intellectual disabilities.

    Throughout the course of the event, facts about America’s education system and educational inequity will be shared. All proceeds collected at this event and throughout the day will go towards Windham High School, so come out, enjoy the show and help change the world!

    2/16-2/20 is Teach For America's UCONN EDUCATION WEEK. For more info visit https://www.facebook.com/events/1617418808486450/
