Does Your School Value Experiential Education?
JUMP! Foundation creates interactive, empowering learning experiences using activities that focus on personal growth, community building and leadership. We inspire individuals to be actively engaged community members and global citizens. Every program we develop is rooted in experiential education — meaning “learning by doing or learning from experience ” — and are custom designed according to the needs of your school and the program participants.
FOR STUDENTS
Our Student Programs enhance students’ confidence and ability to face future challenges. Through our innovative and fun activities, we challenge students to gain a broader understanding and appreciation for themselves, their community, and their global contexts, providing them with opportunities to foster creativity, exercise empathy, and develop personal leadership.
FOR EDUCATORS
Recapture your enthusiasm for innovative education at school. We tackle life and school challenges, and support you in rediscovering your passion. You’ll learn from the best — our expert JUMP! facilitators who specialize in experiential and global citizenship education — and who will guide you every step of the way, encouraging you to use your knowledge and skills with confidence and clarity.
FOR SCHOOLS
Ready to make a change in your school? We facilitate targeted strategic planning and visioning designed to foster a schoolwide approach to innovation. Through a combination of a thorough community needs assessment process, guided group discussions, visioning exercises and breakout sessions, our School-wide Program results in strategic actions plans, realistic evaluations of your school’s strengths and challenges, candid discussions about how to position your school for future success, and enthusiasm for embracing strategic changes and innovation.

What is Your Pricing?
JUMP! Experience and School programs are paid for by schools and institutions that have the means and also are dedicated to empowering their students as global citizens.
We then take the surplus from those paid programs and reinvest them in bringing the same experiential learning programs to serve underprivileged youth through JUMP! Development.

What is a JUMP! Program?
A program is a learning experience, either in a traditional building or outside in the world. We develop 3 types of programs at JUMP!:
- J! Schools: Programs utilizing personal development, community building, and global citizenship methods to enhance learning on a campus.
- J! Experiences: Programs venturing into the real world outside the walls of the school.
- J! Development: Programs working with local partners in underserved communities in the regions we work in most.
What is a JUMP! Program?
JUMP! is a non–profit social enterprise that works to inspire, empower, and engage individuals in leadership development, community building, and global citizenship education.
We do this by developing, designing, and running purposeful experiential education programs.
Do You Have Any Job Openings?
We have a few different ways to get involved, all start with filling out a simple application form.
First, you can join as a Facilitator in Training on a program. This is somebody that shadows and supports a more experienced facilitator on a program.
We also are always looking for Program Managers to lead our programs in schools or in the field.
And of course, we have a full-time staff that keeps the boat moving while we are on programs. You can find those openings on our Careers Page.
How do you build your programs?
The process of building our programs is intentional, purposeful, and focused on the participant needs.
This can take anywhere from one-month to nine-months to design and tailor a program. We do have locations and thematic programs that serve as a base in tailoring to the individual school or student group. When using these base locations and themes, we can rely on our institutional knowledge and expertise to delve even deeper.
How Long are Your Programs?
J! Schools programs typically run from an hour block up to a week on campus. J! Experiences are typically from one-day to seven-days with a few programs extending up to five weeks.
