Supporting the National Teachers Hall of Fame is easy. Simply visit here to make your donation.
You can choose a general gift to the Hall of Fame or support National Memorial for Fallen Educators, purchase a brick on the Wall of Fame in honor of a favorite teacher, or recognize an educator through our One in a Million program. Every option is a meaningful way to say thank you to those who have shaped lives through teaching.
Because of generous supporters like you, the National Teachers Hall of Fame continues to elevate the profession in powerful and visible ways. This past spring, our 2025 inductees were featured on CBS Mornings, shining a national spotlight on extraordinary educators and the impact they have on students every day. Even more remarkable, thanks to a transformative partnership with Canva, each inductee and each of their schools received $20,000 to invest directly back into classrooms and communities. It was a moment that perfectly captured what NTHF stands for: recognition paired with meaningful support. You can watch the celebration here on CBS Morning.
Closer to home, our physical Hall of Fame has been refreshed to better tell the stories of our inductees. The updated space now highlights educator contributions more prominently and features smaller, rotating exhibits that allow us to share more stories, more often. Every visit reinforces the professionalism, creativity, and lasting influence of great teaching.
Looking ahead, we are thrilled to announce the 2026 National Teachers Hall of Fame Summit, Celebrating Our Profession, Inspiring Our Future, taking place June 29 to July 1, 2026 at Disney’s Yacht and Beach Club Resort at Walt Disney World® in Orlando. This three-day gathering will bring together inductees, classroom educators, administrators, students, and education supporters from across the country. Together, we will honor the profession, share best practices, and inspire the future of teaching and learning.
None of this happens without you. Your support makes it possible for us to celebrate excellence, elevate educator voices, and create opportunities that strengthen schools and communities nationwide. Thank you for believing in teachers and for being part of what comes next.
