Inspiring Minds

Inspiring Minds is a dynamic, award-winning educational nonprofit that closes the achievement gap. The organization is dedicated to enabling our city’s public school students to succeed in school – and build a good foundation for their future. We do this by recruiting, training and supporting volunteers to work with students in small groups during the school day.

Today is our second day of placements! 68 volunteers will give at least an hour of their time today!

Yesterday's impacts are amazing: Here's a great quote from one of our student volunteers "Well organized, teacher made me feel welcomed and helped me find ways to help out with the kids. The children were so much fun to be around!"
