Lifespring Foundation Mission
The Lifespring Foundation's purpose is to
empower people to invent a future that works for themselves and,
in partnership, create a world that works for everyone.
Our programs generate breakthrough programs
of education which promote self-esteem and personal and social responsibility
through experiential learning. We focus on tangible improvements
to the quality of life and acknowledge that the quality of human
life will not be sustained by the temporary fixing of problems.
Rather than temporarily alleviating the symptoms of these problems,
we forward the fundamental resolution of problems by utilizing an
experiential and collaborative model of learning.
These programs have been introduced to high
schools and communities throughout the world.
Clearly the fate of our world rests heavily on our ability to educate
today's youth for tomorrow's challenges. Who a teacher, a student,
and a parent must be today is certainly different than those three
groups were ten years ago. Education can no longer be the primary
job of educators alone. All three groups have a shared responsibility
and ownership for creating an unprecedented future for education.
As a committed partner in generating
a vision for education, the Lifespring Foundation is proud to have
developed and implemented innovative workshops which support a vision
of partnership, discovery, and growth for all who participate, and
encourages creativity, initiative, and a renewed commitment to lifelong
learning.
