Sparks

Mentors become positive role models to youth exploring their potential "Spark" of the environment. Mentors educate students about the environment and the issues affecting our world, globally and locally. 

We're determined to empower students to take action in their own community.

Join Sparks

The special ability or interest kids have is their Spark. And that Spark can be fanned into a major talent or passion and, ultimately, a critical contribution to the world at large. With a little help, kids can find their Spark—and learn to make it grow into a positive, life-enhancing energy.

 

College Students Wanted

This program was first piloted during the 2011-2012 academic year and has since been expanded. We are looking for reliable, dedicated, and outgoing volunteers who want to build their resume, connect with other students, gain leadership experience, and make a lasting impression on a child’s life to join this program.
