About Teach For Senegal
Teach For Senegal (TFS ) is a local non-profit organization that is taking a unique approach to eliminating educational inequity in Senegal by enlisting Senegal’s most promising future leaders ( who we call Jambaars) in the effort.
TFS offers a Fellowship to young Senegalese leaders from both the diaspora and within Senegal to serve as full-time teachers in their own communities for two years. TFS meets the pressing need for exceptional teachers in Senegal’s understaffed low-income schools while fostering a constituency of young leaders positioned to advance the cause of educational equity and affect long-term systemic change.
Since its inception, in 2019, Teach For Senegal placed 22 Jambaars in schools in 10 underserved schools in Podor, Senegal impacting over 1,000 students directly and 5000 students indirectly.
By 2025, TFS plans to expand to recruit 140 Jambaars to teach in 65 communities.
