Boston Area Classroom Volunteer

BUILD’s mission is to ignite the power of youth in under-resourced communities to build Career success, Entrepreneurial mindsets, and Opportunity. We help students become the CEOs of their own lives. One of the key components of our organization is volunteering. Volunteers support and motivate students on a youth business team. They provide thoughtful and compassionate feedback along the students’ entrepreneurial journey and become a part of the students’ networks helping them build social capital. This volunteer opportunity is working with high school students. There is no prior business experience required and we encourage people of all career backgrounds to apply.

All volunteers are trained about BUILD and their role and expectations as a volunteer. Volunteers will learn about the events in which they’ll participate, the context of the entrepreneurship curriculum and what feedback they’re expected to provide.

Benefits and opportunities include:

• Expand your own professional network
• Attend student events to see next generation of entrepreneurs
• BUILD swag
• Attend appreciation and networking events
• Impact and empower young people
