Los Angeles Education Partnership is teaming with burgeoning food chain Starbird to celebrate educational leaders this May with a promotion geared to help strengthen the learning community during Teacher Appreciation.
Throughout the month of May, online Starbird customers will be able to make a $5 donation to LAEP to advance educational equity and help facilitate access to quality educational and wellness practices so that children thrive from diapers to diplomas.
The May promotion will also allow online visitors to support The Children’s Book Project, which provides much-needed books and educational resources to underserved communities in the Bay Area.
“We’re excited to partner with Starbird to celebrate teachers and the invaluable role they play in inspiring classrooms and communities,” said LAEP Interim CEO Dawn A. Kurtz. “As we champion educators, it is our hope that we uplift learning communities and create equitable environments for students and families.”
In addition to donation opportunities, Starbird will extend a special offer during Teacher Appreciation Week, from May 6 to May 10, when teachers with a valid education ID can enjoy a complimentary entree item in any Starbird restaurant.
“At Starbird, we believe in the power of education and the incredible impact teachers have on shaping young minds, said Aaron Noveshen, Founder and CEO of Starbird. “Teacher Appreciation Month is an opportunity for us to express our gratitude and support for the dedicated educators who work tirelessly to inspire and educate our youth.”
