Together Foundation awards 100 MasterClass Annual Memberships to deserving teachers

SAINT LOUIS, MO (December 1, 2020) — Together Foundation has awarded 100 MasterClass annual memberships to deserving teachers in the Greater St. Louis Metropolitan Area who are making a difference in students’ lives as they navigate the challenges of learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. Recipients were nominated by the community as part of a Teacher of the Week promotion sponsored by Together Credit Union.

“We are thrilled to partner with MasterClass to continue fueling our teachers’ passion for learning, an important value they are instilling in their students,” said Pier Alsup, Chief Community Engagement & Social Responsibility Officer.

MasterClass is a streaming platform that provides members unlimited access to 90+ instructors in nine categories. Each class includes extensive pre-recorded video content, a class workbook, interactive assignments, and community activities. The videos are viewable at any time, and they can be paused, fast-forwarded, and re-watched as needed. In addition, members may utilize the class discussions below each video to share their thoughts, upload their performances, and provide feedback on others’ work.

The 100 MasterClass annual memberships, valued at $18,000, was donated to the Together Foundation by the MasterClass Grants program.

“Inspiration comes in many forms and we are grateful for MasterClass’s investment in our mission and community,” added Alsup.
