Montessori Global Growth Fund (MGGF) aids under-resourced communities worldwide

An IRS registered 501(C)(3) public charity

When children have an opportunity to learn in a child centered environment, they thrive and become enthusiastic life long learners. Using materials especially designed and built for their stage of development, they gain confidence and pride in their accomplishments. With guidance from adults who introduce them to ideas, concepts and tools as they are ready to receive them, children flourish.

Too many children don’t have access to such environments. MGGF aids under-resourced communities create Montessori initiatives. These initiates will enable their children to become productive adults.
