Volunteer with Step Up’s innovative photojournalism program: I Dream To…
I Dream To... is one of Step Up’s foundational self-esteem and leadership building after-school programs designed to empower underserved teen girls to discover and explore various career opportunities and start dreaming big. Through weekly classes led by a professional instructor, girls learn skills in photography, journalism and critical thinking. Ultimately, Step Up connects each girl with a professional woman in the career of the girl’s choice to learn directly from the woman living the teen’s dream, and to realize the real possibility of achieving it herself. Students finish by proudly showcasing their work at a special Step Up culmination event.
Volunteer Expectations:
• A desire to make a positive impact on the lives of a group of young women
• A fun, flexible and energetic attitude
• A commitment to attend at least two classes is suggested to get the most out of your volunteer experience
• Specialized knowledge and experience in photography and/or journalism is welcomed, but NOT at all required
