Interested in Recruiting the Next Class at KIPP TRUTH Academy?

On Saturday, March 19th, DSVP partners are invited to participate in an “experience” that will bring you closer to the communities they serve and increase your awareness and understanding of the challenging process of taking their message to the community.

KIPP invites DSVP partners to join them for a 2 hour recruiting event. Partners are asked to be at the KIPP no later than 8:45 am on March 19th. There will be a brief 15 minutes overview and partners will be paired with KIPP staff. From 9:00 am to 11:00 am participants will canvass the local neighborhoods sharing the KIPP opportunity with the parents and potential KIPP’sters in those households. There is a particular need for partners and participants who are Spanish-speaking or bilingual.

Barbara Errickson and Dick Evans, DSVP lead partners for KIPP, ask for the help of our partners to get an “up close and personal” view of this experience and to see, first hand, why there is such a great need for the value KIPP brings to these communities.
