buildOn is a non-profit organization that empowers primarily urban U.S. high school students through in-class and intensive after-school programs. In addition to tremendous contributions of community service in their own cities and neighborhoods, buildOn youth actually build schools and bring literacy to children and adults in developing countries around the world. buildOn programs are designed to build confidence and real-world capabilities in American youth while also empowering communities world-wide to overcome the crippling cycle of illiteracy, poverty and low expectations by opening the door to education.

Description and/or History:
buildOn Leadership Committees provide a rewarding opportunity for professionals to lend valuable volunteer and fundraising support to empower youth throughout the U.S. Committees help raise funds, plan and run events, and work hands-on with buildOn students.

With a passion driven by the commitment and enthusiasm of buildOn students and teachers both far and wide, buildOn is seeking self-starters to invest their extra time by helping to:

  • Increase public awareness and support of buildOn’s global mission to empower youth and eliminate illiteracy.
  • Support buildOn programs and services through fundraising events and networking opportunities.
  • Volunteer for our myriad and frequent events such as weekend service projects with buildOn students and annual fundraising endeavors.
