One Day, All Children...The Unlikely Triumph of Teach For America and What I Learned Along the Way (ISBN 1586481797) is the first book by Wendy Kopp, CEO and Founder of Teach For America, published by PublicAffairs in April 2003, a decade after the launch of Teach For America. A new edition was issued in the spring of 2011 to coincide with the organizations 20th Anniversary; it contains a new afterword by the author. [1] [2]. The title is drawn from Teach For America's vision statement: "One day, all children in this nation will have the opportunity to attain an excellent education."[3]

In One Day..., Kopp shares the story of Teach For America, from its beginnings as a one-person startup to a successful large nonprofit organization, with more than 8,000 corps members teaching during the 2010-2011 school year, and a network of over 20,000 alumni [4][5]
