About Us
One8 Foundation believes that education is the doorway to equal opportunity and self-sufficiency, and that education in the 21st Century requires a higher bar for what students need to know in order to secure careers with adequate incomes and meaningful advancement opportunities. Currently, the U.S. is 31st among the 35 OECD industrialized nations in math competency and 20th in reading, and our country’s aspiration should be to make an outstanding education attainable to all, regardless of zip code. This is the social justice issue of our time, and the health and sustainability of our democracy depends on an educated citizenry that have the problem solving, critical thinking and STEM skills necessary to succeed in the new economy.
