Transforming Lives and Communities
Supporting life long learning.
We envision a world where every person, regardless of age, background, or nationality, has access to enriching educational experiences that span a lifetime. Guided by the principles and spirit of Mr. Derek L. Farmer, we aim to be a catalyst for change, leading the way in fostering a global culture of curiosity, wisdom, and empathy.
Through innovative programs, partnerships, and relentless pursuit of excellence, The Farmer Foundation seeks to be a beacon of hope and opportunity, transforming lives and communities through the universal gift of education.
Our Mission
In honor of Mr. Derek L. Farmer's enduring belief in the transformative power of education, The Farmer Foundation is committed to igniting the passion for lifelong learning in individuals of all ages. By breaking down barriers to education and creating inclusive opportunities, we strive to empower students to explore all subjects and levels of education. Through collaboration, innovation, and unwavering support, we endeavor to cultivate minds, enrich lives, and foster a global community where education is not a privilege but a shared human right.
Scholarships
We create bespoke continuing education programs to address the needs of teachers and their student communities. From training on the latest technology to new pedagogical methods, we help teachers make their classrooms engaging and successful.
Support for Communities
Education happens within the context of a larger community. Our approach extends beyond the school to help ensure students have the necessary support to do their best learning.
Just like moons and like suns,
With certainty of tides,
Just like hopes springing high,
Still I’ll rise
