The "I Have A Dream" Foundation of Boulder County is a local non-profit that works to empower students from low income communities to succeed in school, college, and career by providing academic, social, and emotional support from elementary school through college. We currently are serving over 600 Dreamer Scholars between the grades of 1st and 12th in Boulder Valley and St Vrain Valley School Districts.
We are in need of volunteers who have some level of Spanish speaking ability to volunteer one afternoon per week for the spring (January through May) with some elementary aged students in Boulder. The after school program does a variety of academics, art, sports, social emotional activities, and more! Come help out a few hours per week and build relationships with these amazing kids! Ideal candidates are flexible, energetic, fun, engaging and want to help support the youth of the community.
WHERE: Boulder, near 30th and Iris
COMMITMENT: at least 1 afternoon (3pm-5:30pm) per week for the semester (January-May)

Mission: To empower children from low-income communities to succeed in school, college, and career by providing academic, social, and emotional support from elementary school through college, along with a post-secondary tuition assistance scholarship.

Description
Since 1990, IHDF Boulder County has served more than 1,000 local youth, and currently has 12 active Dreamer Scholar Classes. The model, with its one-on-one attention and daily programming, has proven to narrow the opportunity gap. Dreamer Scholars graduate from high school, enroll in post-secondary programming, and complete their post-secondary education at much higher rates than their low-income peers.
