buildOn breaks the cycle of poverty, illiteracy, and low expectations through service and education. Our afterschool service programs in the U.S. mobilize urban youth to contribute intensive service to their own communities - helping senior citizens, the homeless and young children. Through buildOn, these same students build schools in developing nations in Africa Asia and Central America, where more than 60,000 children and adults are educated each day. 95% of buildOn youth in the U.S. go on to college. At home and abroad, we are inspiring the next generation of leaders.
