SCHOOL RESOURCES

School Partners Program

The School Partners Program cultivates, nurtures and sustains partnerships between DPS schools and the Denver community. The program creates tailor-made partnerships between schools and businesses/community organizations. School partners provide volunteer time, in-kind contributions and financial resources to meet the specific needs of their school. In return, partners receive a multitude of benefits.

What could you do for a school?

Denver schools have diverse and specific needs that businesses and community organizations can fill. Whether your organization wants to donate school supplies, volunteer time to be reading buddies, or underwrite after-school programs, there is an opportunity to form a long lasting partnership with a Denver school. Let us help you make a difference in a student’s life starting today.

Examples of past School Partner opportunities include:

Providing volunteers for a one-day project, such as coordinating a school field day, judging science fair projects, or completing school beautification work
Creating holiday food baskets for families at the school
Hosting a teacher appreciation party
Providing in-kind services
Identifying volunteers on your staff to serve as on-going tutors, college application advisors, or reading buddies
