NWEF founders witnessed firsthand what happens when education becomes ideological: Marxist ideology fueling student rebellion and military dictatorship in Ethiopia. Years in Ukraine, watching citizens struggle to escape the effects of 75 years of Communism.
Now, seeing similar trends in U.S. education — promoting ideology while neglecting literacy and ethical clarity — we knew something had to change. That's why we founded NWEF: to rebuild and strengthen American education by restoring what made it successful in the first place.

Blog Post CommentThe decline of our country’s moral and intellectual fiber can be traced to a decades long effort to destroy our public schools. If we want to save our country we have to save our public education. NWEF has an in-depth plan to address our systemic problems with a multifaceted approach that offers effective long-term solutions. We believe NWEF is playing a critical role in reversing the decline of our country due to the decline of our educational systems. Our support of NWEF allows us to participate in saving our schools, our grandchildren, and our country."
