About PRDCEDU

The Puerto Rico – Washington D.C. Educational Alliance Foundation (PRDCEDU) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit connecting underserved youth in Puerto Rico and Washington, D.C. with educational, leadership, and cultural opportunities.

We are at the beginning of an exciting journey — building our programs, team, and organizational systems from the ground up. We are looking for motivated people who want to be part of that journey and help shape the organization from the very beginning.

The Opportunity

We are recruiting our Founding Volunteer Leadership Team.

Each volunteer leader will help develop an important area of the organization, working directly with the Executive Director and, as appropriate, the Board of Directors.

You will have the opportunity to take ownership of projects, develop practical professional skills, and see your work become part of a growing nonprofit.

No previous nonprofit experience is required. We value initiative, reliability, curiosity, organization, and a willingness to learn.

These are unpaid volunteer leadership positions.
