Teachers for Peace

Free, continuous education for people affected by war.

We connect volunteer educators with learners in communities affected by conflict and educational exclusion — including Ukraine, Afghanistan and Syria — through free online classes, local chapters and youth leadership programs.

Free classes, always

Learners are never charged. Volunteer teachers deliver weekly online classes in languages and subjects matched to each community.

Local chapters

Chapter coordinators in each region manage schedules, attendance and learner safety — close to the communities they serve.

Safeguarding first

Every volunteer completes safeguarding training and coordinator review before teaching. Access is approval-based, never automatic.

Flagship program

From Learners to Leaders. From Ideas to Action.

Learners to Leaders is our youth leadership, generosity and community-action program for young people aged roughly 14–20 from communities affected by conflict. In small, interactive cohorts, participants discover their strengths, connect across cultures and turn generosity into youth-led community initiatives.

The program adapts learning and inspiration from our founder Jennifer Richmond's GivingTuesday Starling Fellowship experience. Teachers for Peace participates in the GivingTuesday generosity movement; GivingTuesday does not own, operate or formally endorse Teachers for Peace.

For funders & partners

We report impact as aggregate, anonymized figures — teaching hours delivered, attendance and reach — never individual learner data. Restricted funds, such as those for Learners to Leaders, are kept separate from core operating funds.

  • Board-ready impact reporting with clear metric definitions.
  • Approval-based access and safeguarding review for every volunteer.
  • A volunteer-run model where funding goes to learners, not overhead.
