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.

We love our volunteers! Inspiring Minds is making a difference in the lives of our youngest learners and Rhode Island's future teachers. A heart-warming note below from one of our undergraduates:

I wanted to thank you for the opportunity to volunteer with Inspiring Minds. Going into this practicum, I was very nervous about working with inner city kids because it was completely different from my own experiences in school. However, you and Ms. Lavoie helped to alleviate these fears and show that I could actually make a difference in these kids' lives. The teacher and students were all so welcoming and caring, and by the end of the first volunteer day, I felt like I had connected with those children on a deeper level. With my teacher's help, I was able to bring my own experiences in to teach the students, but the students also taught me so much about gratitude, kindness, and persistence. It was one of the most open and loving environments I have ever had the honor of working in, and I just wanted to thank you for helping coordinate this wonderful experience. I deeply appreciate the opportunity to make a difference in my community with those who need it most.

You can join us too! We're recruiting volunteers for our KidsBridge Summer Learning Program. Will you give a few hours a week to help a rising kindergartener get off to a good start? Click here to sign up: https://givepul.se/3f5qu
