My Nonprofit Reviews

The best way to experience DC SCORES is by participating in one of its marquee events, whether it's a Poetry Slam or a Fall Frenzy/Spring Jamboree. With COVID-19, being able to do this has been limited, but experiencing online poetry slams, such as Our Words Our City shows the positive impact DC SCORES is still able to make and serve its poet-athletes during the pandemic. Observing the confidence in these kids while they're reading their own poetry, or the hustle and sportsmanship they display while playing soccer, it's clear that the poet-athletes are positively benefiting from DC SCORES programming. Now, more than ever, it's imperative to make sure our must susceptible children have the opportunity to participate in programming that grows both their physical and social/emotional strengths and DC SCORES continues to find ways to be there for them.
