Our Work with Foundations

As icouldbe.org’s programs grow to serve students all over the US and beyond, we look for support from foundations to develop and expand our programs. Foundations are invited to adopt new schools or school districts in the geographical areas they serve, or work with us to support existing programs. Some of our new initiatives include:

  • International Programs: Looking to Africa and beyond, we seek to connect underprivileged youth with volunteers from their own countries, providing educational planning and career exploration in line with their goals and interests.
  • Serving Children with Disabilities: We are preparing our program platform to be accessible to children with a broad array of special needs and recruiting mentors who face similar challenges.
  • Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM): Responding to the focused interests of students in STEM-focused schools, we are working with partners to build content, curricula and activities.
  • Embracing New Technologies: Bringing web 2.0 functionalities to e-mentoring allows mentors and mentees to interact in dramatic new ways and maximize the mentoring experience.
  • Youth Organizations, Alumni Networking and Affinity Groups: E-mentoring programs customized and managed by icouldbe.org encourage social networking and grow organizations.
