About the Teacher Excellence Fund

Support Our Teachers at the 9th Annual Great Hearts Gala

Education is more than academics—it’s about shaping young minds and hearts in pursuit of Truth, Goodness, and Beauty. For over 20 years, Great Hearts has provided a transformative, tuition-free education to thousands, thanks to the dedication of our incredible teachers.

Behind every student’s success stands a teacher—a mentor, a guide, and a steadfast believer in their potential. To honor and support them, we proudly host the Great Hearts Gala, benefiting the Teacher Excellence Fund, which rewards and retains Arizona’s best educators.

Don't be late for this very important date! Join us for an enchanting Alice in Wonderland inspired evening. Guests will enjoy a hosted cocktail reception, silent auction, wine pull, and our traditional program highlighting inspiring Great Hearts students and faculty, along with a live auction and paddle raise. The evening will conclude with music, dancing, and celebration. All proceeds benefit the Teacher Excellence Fund in support of our beloved faculty. 

Our goal? Raise $1,000,000 to directly support the teachers who shape future leaders. Your support makes this possible.

Will you join us in celebrating and championing our great-hearted teachers?
