Our mission

We serve as a bridge (puente) for the Hispanic population that connects them with resources and opportunities that help them thrive.

Opportunities

After School Tutor

We offer afterschool tutoring for first- and second-generation Latino children in 1st through 6th grade from local elementary schools during the regular school year. We have an Academic Coordinator that oversees the program, she assesses the children, makes observations, and guides tutors on what areas to work with each child. Our volunteer tutors come from all major colleges in the area, juniors, and seniors in some of our local high schools and community volunteers.

About us

At ElPuenteDayton.org, we see the value in everyone. We want to be a catalyst for positive change, and since our beginnings in 2009, we’ve been driven by the same principles we initially founded our Non-Profit upon: family support, empowerment and progress. Dealing with the challenges faced by the Latino community of today requires problem-solvers who bring different perspectives and are willing to take risks. ElPuenteDayton.org emerged out of a pursuit to inspire and support the Latino community in Dayton, and a desire to be a catalyst for educational opportunities that can lead to an end to the cycle of poverty.
