Through buildOn afterschool programs in high schools across the U.S., urban youth are contributing intensive service, helping seniors, young children, and the homeless in their communities, and are also helping to build schools in some of the poorest countries on the planet. Students in buildOn programs, located in 118 of America's lowest performing urban high schools, have contributed a staggering 760,000 hours of service. buildOn also partners these same students with developing countries in Africa, Asia, and Central America to build schools. buildOn's school construction programs have completed 384 schools to date. And through the unparalleled commitment of parents and grandparents to educate their children, both boys and girls, rural villages provide all the volunteer labor in collaboration with buildOn to break ground on a new school every six days. 17 15 85 40 0 0 5574417 6051781 0 0 73815 59777 -2334 6596 5645898 6118154 0 0 0 0 3488042 3486695 0 0 514099 1663569 2133982 5151611 5620677 494287 497477 5684546 6619677 95363 308767 5589183 6310910 Enhancing education and empowering youth to make a positive difference in their communities while helping people in developing countries increase their self reliance through education. 0 0 2969585 0 0 Us Afterschool Program: buildOn makes a positive impact on youth and their communities through our Afterschool Program.
