Volunteers receive a $1400 educational award to use or give to a loved one after volunteering 450 hours by spending 15 volunteer hours per week at a school. The program is in over 22 schools in Baltimore City.
Independent research shows that Experience Corps boosts student academic performance, helps schools and youth-service organizations become more successful, and enhances the well-being of older adults in the process.
