Established in 2017, the David and Jacquie Clark Family Fund continues our family’s desire to help individuals with special needs and their families.

The legacy first created through our education technology company (n2y) has evolved to include philanthropic support of nonprofits serving this distinct and well-deserving community outside of classroom instruction. Central to our mission is providing grants to organizations that champion the success, well-being, and access to opportunities for the people they serve.

Our history.

In 1997, Jacquie and David Clark began n2y in the spare bedroom of their home. Dave possessed over 30 years of experience in the Air Force, while Jacquie worked as a speech-language pathologist in various school settings. Together, they developed a passion for improving educational opportunities for students with special needs—a core value that remains at the heart of their organization.

The entire Clark family has contributed to the business, developing educational technology solutions for special education teachers and their students. While Dave and Jacquie transitioned out of n2y in 2016, the company they founded still serves school districts nationwide and has helped countless students reach their highest potential. Their desire to continue serving the special needs population resulted in the establishment of the David and Jacquie Clark Family Fund.
