"Marlene keeps telling people how much I've grown up and what I've achieved, I’m not sure if she realizes that a lot of it is because of her."
~Gayle

Communities In Schools is a great way for YOU to invest, through direct action, in the future of young people and the future of your community. Often all it takes is one hour a week.

You can help in the following ways:

Change a young life for the better. The single most important factor in whether a child makes it or not is the involvement of a caring adult. You can be that caring adult. We're experts at recruiting, training and organizing mentors and tutors  - Join us!

Fund an organization that works. We help thousands of young people realize their potential, but many more need our services. Help us expand our reach and deepen our level of support. For every dollar you donate, 87 cents directly supports critical programming.

One Child At A Time
"I used to think that success meant making a million dollars. Now a little older and wiser, I’ve found that my greatest sense of satisfaction comes when I give a part of myself to someone else. Through Communities In Schools, I’ve been able to mentor young men and help them realize their full potential in life. Through these relationships, I’ve learned that the success of our nation depends on a generation that is desperately in need of good role models. It only takes a little time, energy and commitment to make a difference in the life of a child. I believe my work as a Communities In Schools’ mentor is my greatest achievement."
