Desire to Aspire is looking for a photographer to take some awesome pictures and videos of our youth mentoring lessons on a weekly basis. In order for our organization to grow it is important that we have content that shows the world what Desire to Aspire is all about. These images will be used for our non-profits website and social media pages. We are seeking an individual who is creative and has some experience working with youth. If this sounds like you, contact us!
This volunteer opportunity only requires a 1 hour weekly in person commitment. All photographs and videos will be the property of the Desire to Aspire Mentoring Program. This media CANNOT be used for any personal blogs, website, portfolios, print material, or apparel.

Description
What does Desire to Aspire Curriculum teach youth?
Our developmental curriculum focuses on 6 pillars and 5 skills that we believe are essential to learn as a young lady. We are working on building a curriculum contains 30 weeks worth of instruction, tailored for the youths grade and developmental level. Our pillars are Higher Education, Sisterhood, Etiquette & Culture, Service & Leadership, Self-Esteem & Character, Positive Decision-Making. Our skills are Emotion Identification & Regulation, Effective Communication, Problem-Solving, Distress Tolerance.
Where Desire to Aspire is going?
Desire to Aspire plans on continuing to expand nationally and internationally. In addition to our growth in the youth mentoring sector, Desire to Aspire feels that it is also important to work with women, as they are often the foundation of the family and young girls we serve. We feel that to truly build strong girls, we must make sure that their natural role models (i.e. mothers, aunts, grandmothers) have all of the necessary resources to flourish and be great examples. We are working on pairing women with mentors, as well and creating a curriculum that will provide women with necessary skills, resources, and support to flourish no matter what stage of life.
