Join me in supporting the DC Scores Spring campaign! I love being a member of the Advisory Council and need your help so we can serve more students - read more below:
For 30 years, DC SCORES has served generations of young people through the power of soccer, poetry, and service.
This spring, our goal is to raise $30,000 to support DC SCORES programming at Southeast schools in Wards 7 & 8.
Why Southeast schools in Wards 7 & 8? Out-of-school time (OST) programs, including DC SCORES, transform lives. Young people who participate in OST programming benefit from higher academic grades, greater college and career readiness, improved social and emotional well-being, and reduced involvement in crime.
Families in Ward 7 and 8 report greater interest in OST programming than wealthier households, yet face higher competition for enrolling in those programs. DC SCORES is bridging that gap.
Right now, many of our family and school communities face uncertainty. But, with your support, we can ensure our partnerships with Southeast schools remain strong and provide young people consistent, safe, joyful, and fully funded programming that will benefit them well into adulthood.
