Through its Humanitarian Outreach Project for Education Fund, Missouri NEA assists members, students, and schools.
The HOPE Fund is designed to provide relief to members, students, and/or public schools who are experiencing hardship due to natural disasters.

Contributions to the MNEA Charitable Fund are tax-deductible.
