Creating Partnerships
If you would like to volunteer with your business, organization, or group, look no further! Give back to the Providence community by becoming a tutor in Providence Public Schools, participating in our Power Lunch program, or assisting with deliveries. We also accept monetary donations, supplies, and expertise!

Corporate Partnerships
Inspiring Minds will connect your group or business to participating schools for one-time events or special projects.
Our most popular option for businesses volunteering as groups, is our Breakfast Buddies and Power Lunch program. These mealtime mentoring programs match groups of volunteers from the public and private sector one-to-one with elementary school children, to encourage students to develop a love of school through shared experiences with caring individuals.
By developing relationships with individuals in different vocational fields and careers, we hope to expand young peoples’ imaginations and expose them to a variety of future possibilities.

We also encourage our volunteers to contact their company’s HR or Community Engagement departments, to see if they match donations or donate for a certain amount of time that their employees volunteer!
College and University Partnerships
Inspiring Minds works with a number of colleges and universities to recruit volunteers for In-Person and Virtual Tutoring and Mentoring, as well as various internship positions. We have partnerships with some, to offer academic or service credits for the number of hours volunteered with our organization. We also connect with on-campus clubs and organizations; please reach out if your club would like to become involved in some way!
