Volunteer Testimonials:

"I'll always be grateful to Destination College. I benefitted greatly from the tutoring experience and I learned there were so many more factors which play into success than I had realized. I'm thankful to Destination College for allowing me to intimately meet the people it did, and I credit the program for helping me mature and for shaping my values."

"Over the years, I have had many volunteer opportunities. However, of all my volunteer opportunities, the one that most clearly stands out, is my time volunteering at Destination College. Working with the students at Destination College has been the most rewarding of all. Their enthusiasm and sincere appreciation has made my time volunteering at Destination College a true joy!" 

Martha Bergold
DC Volunteer since 2010 and counting!

"I've volunteered at Destination:College since 2011 and have found it so rewarding. Working on reading skills and helping mentor these students through four years of high school builds meaningful and rewarding relationships. So, when they get into college at the end of their senior year, we are almost as happy as they are at their achievement. "
