About us
A North Alabama nonprofit for special education classrooms
Our mission
Gems Foundation gives special education classrooms, starting with Limestone County Schools, the resources they need: sensory tools, adaptive materials, classroom instruments and art supplies, plus small grants to teachers.
It also creates art-based and music-based learning aids for special needs classes, so every student has a way to learn and take part in class.
Where we are starting
Gems Foundation is a new nonprofit corporation based in North Alabama. We plan to begin our work with special education classrooms in Limestone County Schools.
What guides us
Every student belongs
We believe every student should have a way to learn and take part in class.
Learning through art and music
Art and music can open new ways to understand, express, and connect.
Rooted in North Alabama
We are starting close to home, with the classrooms in our own community.
