Spero’s afterschool programming creates an inclusive place for students to not only grow in academics, but in confidence and sense of belonging here in Oklahoma City.
Our program is ran by our Global Communities Network-a team of leaders who have experienced resettlement, giving them the unique ability to connect with students based on a deep understanding and shared experience.
Our mentor shared that last year “the greatest accomplishment of the program was creating a joyful, welcoming, and emotionally safe environment where youth from different backgrounds felt included, valued, and supported. Even small moments-laughing together, painting, sharing snacks, celebrating cultures, or simply having someone listen to them-ended up meaning far more than we anticipated. The experience not only impacted the youth, but also deeply impacted us as mentors by teaching us patience, resilience, compassion, and the importance of consistency and kindness.”
We are honored to partner with over 200 students!
We invite you to support our students by raising $7,500 to enrich our programming through field trips, STEAM activities, and more.
