Hi Guest<\/span><\/b><\/span>,<\/span><\/b><\/h4>\n

Happy Friday!<\/p>\n

Today, I want to give thanks to our AMAZING MAD-learn team, each of whom serves as a pillar of our organization, each of whom feels the burning need to keep moving forward and do what is best for students, each of whom I admire and respect beyond words.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Each member of our team (spanning the US, Ghana, and India) has made immense sacrifices in the last two months of the global COVID-19 pandemic to ensure that we can avoid layoffs, continue working from home, focus on supporting teachers and students who are learning from home, and stick together as a family<\/u>. We know that we are #inthistogether.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Gregg, Ashutosh, Bhupendra, Rani, Lokendra, Kavita and Doreen. I salute you!<\/b> I can’t thank you enough for being on this journey with me and I am humbled to be rowing this boat with you.<\/div>\n
