Every Child in DC
A Chance to Succeed
2 out 3 DC students — 60,000 kids — need extra academic support! Many more just need an extra caring adult in their lives.
DCTMI matches volunteer tutors and mentors with our nonprofit partners based on volunteers’ schedules, locations, and preferences. In doing so, we can transform education and create a community grounded in empathy that works for everybody.

We’re also thrilled to be partnering with local elementary and middle schools to help them get the support they need for DC students. Learn more about our Neighborhood Supported Schools initiative and about how you can help! Get involved now by volunteering to tutor or mentor in your neighborhood. We especially need LOTS more volunteer tutors at MacFarland Middle School in Petworth and Malcolm X Elementary in Southeast DC.

What Makes DC Tutoring and Mentoring Initiative Unique
To paraphrase Martin Luther King, we believe that we CAN learn to live and work together as brothers and sisters to create a better world for all and close the gap between our scientific progress, on the one hand, and our moral and spiritual progress on the other.
