Ted Hoskinson, Founder

After graduating from Tulane University, Ted began his 23 year career as an elementary school teacher and administrator at private schools in New Orleans and Washington, DC. When Anne, his wife of 34 years died unexpectedly in 2016, he founded Roots and Wings in her honor. It was the name she had chosen as their joint legacy to help children and families in need. The non-profit honors dedicated teachers and staff with its Above and Beyond Recognition Awards, and helps struggling elementary school students learn to read with its free, small-group, after school tutorial program named Project UpLift. Ted hopes to expand Project UpLift, now tutoring over 1,000 students in 13 Title 1 public schools, to all Title One schools in Palm Beach County to ensure that all students become proficient in reading by the end of 3rd grade. Ted also supports many other local charities. In his spare time he loves playing tennis and continues when possible traveling the world, something his wife Anne also cherished.
