ORGANIZATION: Cultured Kids Inc

  • 5 people are interested

Cultured Kids is a non-profit organization that designs education programs that help schools model and teach cultural empathy, understanding, and respect. In addition we are focused on developing programs that will engage students in 21st century skills, help to close the achievement gap, and challenge students to develop intercultural communication skills and international collaboration.

This year will be a year of transition for our organization. We are working on transferring our current curricula to a digital platform, are working on our first large scale project that will be introduced to directors of ed at Boston Public Schools and Fairfax County Schools, and are working through Board Development.

The research required for the organization is growing beyond our current capabilities. We are looking for a professional to join our board who is willing to develop and lead the research that is needed to affirm our chosen projects are valid and worth while and to evaluate the outcomes of the work we are doing.

We are asking board members to commit to a 2-year term, to be available for quarterly board meetings and an annual face to face group gathering.

Mission Statement

We cultivate empathy and belonging through innovative, multidisciplinary youth programs that embrace cultural differences and unify school communities.

Description

We design programs and curricula to help educators and education leaders unify their culturally complex classrooms and schools. We use literature and art as anchors for supporting the development of the social & emotional competencies needed for successful global citizenship. Our work will explore themes related to identity, empathy, and an increased sense of belonging.

We are currently working with one of the largest school districts in the U.S.: Fairfax County. We would like to expand our work to ten schools in Fairfax County over the next three years.

We have an eight-member board of directors and a small team of volunteers who are all committed to supporting this cause. We are a diverse and growing team.
