Many hands together forming heart

Social workers and educators play essential roles in our society. 

 

Social workers advocate for, support, and empower individuals, families, and communities facing various challenges. They serve in diverse settings such as schools, hospitals, mental health clinics, and non-profit organizations, guiding people through complex systems and facilitating access to vital resources. Through counseling, crisis intervention, and linkage to essential services, social workers strive to enhance the quality of life and well-being of those they serve. Their impact is profound, often resulting in significant improvements in health, stability, and overall life experiences for their clients. Moreover, social workers drive policy change and advocate for social justice, creating greater equity and inclusivity in their communities.

 

Similarly, educators shape the minds of the next generation. Their influence extends beyond academic learning, encompassing the development of critical thinking, problem-solving, and social and emotional skills. With patience, guidance, and unwavering dedication, teachers profoundly impact the lives of their students. They create positive, supportive learning environments that foster growth, self-esteem, and motivation. Through their tireless work, educators equip their students with the skills and knowledge they need to effect meaningful change in their communities.

​

The Agents for Social Change Foundation is honored to assist future teachers and social workers in reaching their educational aspirations. We offer a $1,000 scholarship to alleviate the financial burden of higher education.
