What We Do: Empowering Youth Through Literacy, Mentorship, and Creativity
At Mindbuilders Community Development Corporation, we believe in unlocking the full potential of every child. Based in Jacksonville, Florida, we deliver innovative educational programs that help third grade students build strong literacy skills while fostering life skills through mentorship, creativity, and real-world experiences. Our approach blends expert reading coaching, dynamic hands-on projects, and the integration of art and music into literacy development.
As a grassroots nonprofit, we promote innovative solutions to educational challenges and expand access for children from low-income families. By creating a positive, inclusive learning environment that fosters engagement, expression, and leadership, we inspire children to thrive academically, socially, and creatively.
Our mission is to empower every young learner with the tools, confidence, and mentorship needed to succeed in school and in life.
Personalized Reading Coaching That Builds Confidence
Strong literacy skills open the door to academic achievement and future opportunities. Our reading coaching program offers personalized support tailored to each child’s needs. In one-on-one and small group sessions, students work with experienced educators who help them develop fluency, comprehension, and critical thinking skills. Through interactive storytelling, creative discussions, and engaging activities, children begin to see reading not as a task, but as a powerful tool for self-expression and learning.
Hands-On Learning Experiences That Create Lasting Impact
We believe the best learning happens through doing. Our hands-on projects connect literacy and learning with real-world relevance. Whether students are building models, exploring science concepts, or collaborating on team challenges, they’re applying their reading comprehension in ways that build problem-solving, teamwork, and leadership. These immersive experiences cultivate curiosity and create memorable learning moments that last far beyond the classroom.
Bringing Literacy to Life Through Art and Music
Creativity is essential to unlocking potential. At Mindbuilders, we make literacy come alive by integrating music, art, and performance into our curriculum. Through drawing, writing songs, acting out stories, or visual storytelling, students connect emotionally with words and ideas. This approach not only reinforces comprehension but also helps children discover confidence in their voices and pride in their creativity, supporting growth in both academics and personal development.
Our Purpose
To create a positive learning environment that generates youth engagement and develops strong reading skills.
We are committed to building relationships that have a direct and lasting impact on young people’s lives while focusing on:
- Health and education
- Child welfare and mental well-being
- Access to childcare and prevention of adolescent pregnancy
- Family income and youth employment
- Expanding literacy and numeracy for underserved children
We work to improve educational outcomes, especially for children from low-income families and underrepresented backgrounds, and to create sustainable futures through youth empowerment.
Inspire a love for reading. Engage, create, and grow with Mindbuilders’ innovative youth development programs.
