Elevate the Village is a community-based nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering
children and families through education, enrichment, resources, and meaningful community support. We believe strong families create strong communities. Our goal is to provide children with opportunities to learn, grow, and reach their full potential while giving parents, caregivers, and families access to resources, education, support, and meaningful connections. Through youth development, educational enrichment, family support, mentorship, community outreach, and access to essential resources, Elevate the Village works to strengthen the entire community—one child, one family, and one village at a time.

Children first
Every decision starts with one question: does this help a child read better this month?
Families as partners
Parents and caregivers are the first teachers. We build around them, never over them.
Show up consistently
Trust is built in small, repeated moments — same tutor, same table, same day each week.
Open books, open doors
Everything we offer is free, and every family in Riverbend is welcome, no paperwork required.
Our people
Staff and board
A small team, most of whom live within a few miles of the children we serve.
