Not even rain can stop the DCTMI team from striving to get our students the support they need.
This weekend, we talked to shoppers at the Dupont Farmer’s Market. Despite the weather, we were able to have some great conversations about the need for tutoring & mentoring.
Whether it’s large-scale festivals or community-based events, we’re grateful to have the opportunity to talk to DC residents about tutoring & mentoring wherever we go. The DCTMI team spent their weekend in NE at the H St Festival and the Trinidad Farmer’s Market. [1/4]
Sunday, we attended the Trinidad Farmer’s Market, in the neighborhood of DCTMI’s own Maurice, where we talked to residents about how just 1-2 hours a week can make a difference. Spaces like these provide great opportunities for community members to connect with each other. [3/4]
On Sunday, we canvassed at the 45th annual Adam’s Morgan Day. Our team had many great conversations about the need for better support for city students, and we’re thrilled to have signed up 100+ volunteers. Special shoutout to Numan, who held down a table through the rain & sun!
With school gearing up, we're hitting the ground running this weekend to talk to folks across DC about the impact tutoring & mentoring have on our youth.
