An investment in FabNewport is not only an investment in the hundreds of students we directly serve, but it's an investment in our leadership and our commitment to transform the learning landscape through our a three-pronged strategy of:
Running our own technology-rich programs.
Deepening our partnerships with schools, libraries, community organizations and businesses to multiply our impact and expand opportunities so more children benefit from community-based learning.
Relentlessly advocating for shifts in attitudes, practices and policies that level the educational playing field.
Our programs are grounded in the research and practices of educational giants who have systematically proven hands on learning, experiences where students engage with relevant authentic challenges, engages students in the highest quality learning. One of those giants is John Dewey, an American philosopher who has influenced generations of American educators, who wrote “Education is not preparation for life; it is life itself.” We couldn’t agree more. The time is now.
Our mission is to inspire the maker in all of us. Our vision is that all students have the skills, confidence, and commitment to positively impact their communities and make their lives.
To inspire your continued support and investment we offer this collection of stories, numbers and photographs. We are grateful for your continued interest and generosity.
Sincerely yours,
