For 25 years, Amary Seck has walked into Mamaroneck High School with a singular belief: that education can cross any border. As a teacher, mentor, and founder of Students for Senegal, Amary has shaped the lives of more than 3,000 students &mdash; nearly 1,000 of whom have joined his mission to expand access to education in his home community of Lambaye, Senegal. Over 200 have traveled with him on life-changing service learning trips. Countless others carry forward his story, his optimism, and his conviction that young people can change the world. Now, after 25 years in the classroom, Amary is embarking on his next chapter &mdash; dedicating himself fully to Students for Senegal. His retirement from teaching is not a step back. It is a step forward. The Amary Seck Legacy Fund honors everything he has built and everything still to come. Your gift ensures that Students for Senegal has the resources to keep putting supplies in students&#39; hands, safe spaces in their communities, and opportunity within their reach &mdash; in Mamaroneck and in Senegal. Help us reach $100,000. This is our thank you to Amary &mdash; and our investment in the students whose lives he will continue to transform.

Hello <span contenteditable="false" data-custom-variable="{{firstname}}" fr-original-class="fr-deletable styled-tag-chip" fr-original-style="" style="background-color: rgb(248, 248, 255); border: 1px solid rgb(191, 191, 255); border-radius: 4px; color: rgb(42, 42, 196); padding: 1px 8px; font-size: 11px; display: inline-block; margin: 0px; overflow-wrap: anywhere; user-select: none; box-sizing: inherit;">First name, I have spent 25 years trying to find the right words to tell my students what they mean to me. I am still searching. But today, I want to try. Thank you. When I came to Mamaroneck, I came with a dream &mdash; that the young people I taught would one day understand that the world is bigger than what they could see, and that they had the power to make it better. You have helped make that dream possible. Every student who has walked into my classroom, every trip to Lambaye, every supply delivered, every safe space built &mdash; none of it happens without people who believe in this mission the way you do. You are part of this story now. You always will be. As I step away from the classroom and into this next chapter, I do not feel like I am leaving anything behind. I feel like I am finally able to give Students for Senegal everything I have. And knowing that you are behind us &mdash; that means everything. Lambaye is a small village. Mamaroneck is a small town. But what we have built together between them is something much larger than either. It is proof that young people can change the world, and that the people who believe in them make all the difference. Thank you for believing. Thank you for giving. And thank you for being part of this with me. With all my gratitude, Amary SeckFounder, Students for Senegal
