Goals

  • Refurbish 50 under-resourced schools using 2000 community volunteers

Overview

Our program will bring together 2000 volunteers to paint murals, refurbish libraries, landscape green spaces, restore playgrounds and much more at 50 under-resourced public schools in the greater Phoenix area. The effort will provide 15,000 hours of volunteer service to schools in need. 

The funds from Pepsi will be used to purchase the supplies to complete these much-needed projects, such as paint, painting supplies, trees, plants,etc.

Deliverables:
2000 volunteers recruited
40-50 schools benefitted
Every dollar invested is leveraged to provide $4 worth of community benefit through volunteer labor, in kind donations, leadership and skills training, and enhanced learning spaces.
80% of volunteers and schools will rate their overall experience, sense of accomplishment, benefit to the community, and effectiveness of the event as either favorable or excellent (‘4’ or ‘5’ on a scale of 1 to 5).
