About The Beck Foundation
The purpose of the Beck Foundation is to initiate and support projects that effectively promote literacy and learning among children youth, and adults. To accomplish this purpose, the Foundation provides financial assistance to registered not for profit cultural, educational, religious institutions, and individuals who use the Educational Practices Booklets of the International Bureau of Education for teacher training and for those who provide free downloadable reading material.
We are interested in exploring projects that are capable of efficiently reaching thousands of school age children and their teachers through the use of technology and non-traditional learning settings. | John and Frances Beck
John and Frances Beck had long careers in the field of teacher education. Their lifelong efforts were devoted to assisting teachers, tutors,
and parents in the field of reading and language development. Their Foundation reflects those efforts by providing, through the
internet, free, downloadable learning material: stories, books, and lesson plans, suitable for children and students from preschool
through grade 9.
