WHY WE DO IT
Of the students we worked with last year: 69% are living in poverty, 27% have limited English proficiency, 40% failed statewide benchmark tests, 5% failed core level courses in the previous year, and 515 are homeless.*

Through our "Safer Students, Stronger Schools" initiative, Communities In Schools of the Dallas Region is increasing awareness, educating school leaders and providing much-needed student support. By donating to Communities In Schools, you are investing in the education, health and safety of hundreds of thousands of students across our community.
Please join us in making our schools the "safe place" our students need and deserve.
BECOME A VOLUNTEER!
It is a fun and rewarding way to have a positive impact on the life of a child.
Each year, CISDR works with more than 1,000 corporate and community volunteers who provide thousands of hours of service to our students and their families.
