Overview

Mission

We are a professional organization dedicated to elevating the teaching profession, with a special focus on creating supportive and empowering environments for Black educators. We strive to offer a diverse range of resources and guidance, covering areas such as advocacy, civic engagement, and professional development, as well as recruitment and retention. We concentrate our organizational activities in public school districts throughout the State of Georgia, especially in areas with large disparities between the population of Black educators and Black students.

What it reported doing in 2025

In 2025, Georgia Educators for Equity and Justice Incorporated (GAEEJ) partnered with the Georgia Budget and Policy Institute, the Intercultural Development Research Association (IDRA), Southern Education Foundation, and Gwinnett County Public Schools to provide policy education, advocacy training, and leadership development opportunities for participating educators. Fellowship participants attended and presented at the National Alliance of Black School Educators (NABSE) Conference in Chicago, sharing the impact of the fellowship and the importance of investing in Black educator leadership and advocacy. In partnership with Black Innovation Alliance and TruSeed, GAEEJ incorporated educational entrepreneurship and innovation training into the fellowship experience. This programming supported fellows in identifying systemic educational challenges and developing scalable, equity-centered solutions designed to address barriers within education systems and communities.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 76% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
