Our Virtual Impact Program connects volunteers from across the globe with students throughout Latin America, who attend our after-school Virtual English Academy on a full scholarship. Together, volunteers and students bridge cultures digitally and inspire and empower each other to reach their potential.
The Virtual Serve & Sponsor Program furthers the impact by bridging service with student sponsorship. Professionals give the gift of scholarships while serving and getting to know the students they sponsor.
💖 How You’ll Participate
You’ll give the gift of scholarship (minimum $25 USD/month) while serving and getting to know the students you sponsor. In addition to choosing which day(s) work best for you, you’ll choose the service option that’s right for you:
Virtual English Tutoring 💬
Afford students the opportunity to gain confidence and practice English outside of formal classes. They’ll develop vocabulary, listening, speaking, pronunciation, literacy, and critical thinking skills in their second language. Outreach360 will provide all the materials needed to support them on their journey to fluency.
Virtual Spanish Tutoring 🌎
Open students eyes to the world and support them in developing literacy and critical thinking skills in their native language. Explore subjects such as math, science, social studies, and art. Outreach360 will provide all the materials to broaden their horizons and improve their academic performance.
“This is the opportunity for her to grow as a well-rounded human being, to maximize her abilities, and in the future, for Elisa to become a change agent in her community, positively impacting many lives with her determination and empathy. She may motivate and/or help more children or young people to fight for their dreams and venture into learning languages or new things!
I want to tell you that there are no words to thank you for your work. You have wonderfully impacted my daughter's life. Elisa never gets tired of attending classes, even with limited time for assignments; she's always motivated and never stops dreaming. Now she creates stories and talks a lot about her academy teachers, who are the best in the world and so fun. Thank you because even if you don't see it, you positively change not only the lives of children but also their families!”
— Elisa’s Parent
