Schedule: Tuesday-Saturday; Monday-Friday outside of the academic year
Salary: $45,000 - $47,400 (Commensurate with Experience)
How You Will Make an Impact
Simply put…you will engage amazing Bronx high school students in SERVICE. You will do this in class in partnership with teachers and after school and on weekends with community-based organizations. You will use buildOn’s modified IPARD model to engage youth in service learning. This model leads to community impact as well as measurable growth for the students themselves. You will help recruit students for our Immersion program where they will pair up with business professionals to teach them the power of service while gaining new skills and building their networks. You will also inspire students to apply for buildOn’s Trek program where they can travel to a buildOn partner country (Malawi, Nepal, Nicaragua, Guatemala or Senegal) to help build a school. (You can go on Trek too! See benefits below!)
The Program
Our Bronx Service-learning program provides high school schools the tools they need to transform their communities through service. Globally, we partner with people in countries with high rates of poverty and illiteracy to build schools, enroll previously out-of-school children, and support adult learners through our Adult Literacy Program. To date, our U.S. students have contributed more than 2.4 million hours of service to their communities, and we’ve built more than 2,500 schools in eight countries––breaking ground on a new school every 36 hours.
If you’re passionate about service and educational justice like we are, we welcome you to apply!
