he Martinez Foundation helps students of color become exceptional teachers. We do it by providing support — scholarships, a collaborative, mentor-driven environment, and curriculum resources. We do it because of what we know our communities need: Increased equity in the classroom. More role models for our children. Extraordinary educators and leaders.

Lenny gave the keynote address. The Matinez Foundation allows Fellowship programs for teachers of diversity. Lenny spoke of teachers and mentors throughout his life to over 200 guests at the Bellevue Hyatt.
