Saved by the Bell

Saved by the Bell is designed to support public school teachers by connecting them with volunteer after school program facilitators. I developed the concept and application from the ground up, drawing inspiration from my prior experiences as an AmeriCorp.

How it works:

Prospective volunteers can create a profile and list their availability, specialties by category, location and other relevant information. Teachers can search through published volunteer profiles and directly contact the volunteers.

How you can help:

“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, What are you doing for others?” — Martin Luther King, Jr.

Not a public school teacher? That's OK! Volunteering can be as easy as facilitating an existing after school program for one afternoon, tutoring a student preparing for the SATs, or teaching a dance class once a week.

Upcoming features:

  1. Volunteer profile picture
  2. Teacher verification process
  3. Review volunteers
