Full-time Opportunities
What’s Thread?
Thread engages academically underperforming high school students confronting significant barriers outside of the classroom by providing each one with a family of committed volunteers and increased access to community resources. We foster students’ academic advancement and personal growth into self-motivated, resilient, and responsible citizens. In addition, by weaving together students, volunteers, and collaborators into a new social fabric–one that transcends barriers and works to end disconnectedness–Thread is working to interrupt the cycle of poverty, crime, and lack of education to improve the odds for all of Baltimore’s young people.
What’s it like to be on the Thread team?
Our Thread community is hard-working, collaborative, and passionate about building community in Baltimore. We go all in with care, compassion, and empathy. We believe small acts make a big difference. Thread’s home base is located inside of TouchPoint Baltimore, a co-working space at Mondawmin Mall. TouchPoint Baltimore brings together high performing organizations with the goals of creating a workforce pipeline and scaling collective social impact by leveraging the strengths of each organization. The organizations work within a model of collaboration where sharing is paramount—sharing resources, information, access to talent, and access to networks, as well as coordinating day-to-day to be able to provide services across constituencies.
