Learning inside of a well-built school raises the standard deviation of student achievement by ten percentage points in sub-Saharan Africa.
why?
Since its founding, BT has been dedicated to giving young people the opportunity to be at the heart of tangible social change through the raising of funds and awareness to construct primary academies in sub-Saharan Africa. As the organization has grown, an increasing number of young professionals in the Indianapolis area have expressed interest in directly supporting the work of BT by offering their time, talent and resources. The problem? We didn’t have much of a way for people to get involved…until now!
what?
Our Social Investment Council is a collection of highly talented and socially conscious rising leaders from the private sector who actively support and promote BT through the staging of formal fundraising events and amongst their network of peers. The Council gives individuals a way to be directly connected with the work of BT—facilitating the construction of classrooms for some of the world’s most vulnerable children.
the details.
All Council members commit to serve on the Council for one year and have the opportunity to renew annually. 2009 Executive Committee members will be asked to make a two year commitment to ensure continuity as the Council grows.
