A school coming to life in Senegal, built side by side with the community by buildOn students and alumni.

What buildOn students learn through this work doesn’t stay in a classroom or end with a program. It stays with them, shaping how they show up in their communities, how they lead, and how they continue building long after they leave.

Their service lives on in every place they return to and every place they help build.

buildOn in Boston x EY: showing up for the city together. ❤️‍🔥

“We did everything from sorting clothes to welcoming neighbors, every act of service mattered. Grateful to EY for helping build community with us in Boston.” —Drew McClendon, Executive Director of buildOn in Boston

Beyond the service project, students had the chance to connect with local professionals, build relationships, and see new possibilities for their own futures. A meaningful day of service and shared learning for everyone involved.

These schools are built through the hands and commitment of the community itself. 🧱

Every volunteer hour helps build more than a school. Parents, neighbors, and community members are also showing the next generation what it looks like to come together and create change as a community.

Before and After in Farani ❤️‍🔥

In Farani, students once learned in conditions that could not fully support the needs of the community.

So when families advocated for change, buildOn and @educationaboveall_eaa’s Educate A Child program, with support from the Qatar Fund for Development, stepped in to help turn their vision of access to quality primary education into reality. In just 67 days, families contributed nearly twice the volunteer workday goal, with 1,972 women and 1,809 men helping bring the new school to life!

Now, Farani has a space built not just for learning, but for the future students and families have fought hard to create together.

The concert may be over, but somehow we’re still there every time we look through these photos. 🥹

A night full of music, community, and the kind of moments you wish you could replay all over again. All to help us expand access to education.

Huge thank you to our Bay Area Global Hub Board members Camilla, Liam, and Kristen Andersen for helping bring this night to life.

View Instagram Stories in Secret

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
