Grant Writer to Help Students have Access

Save to Favorites

We are looking for volunteers who can help us complete grant applications and raise funds for our nonprofit. Even as simple as $9/month donors. For every 1 $9/month donor we can provide 1 laptop to a student EVERY YEAR.

We have a YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQTCifsY2qD_QYfB65aZ8-w

We have a very urgent crisis at our hands as a community and country. Prison systems expand based on 3rd grade literacy rates. A lot of children are written off to a life of crime before they even have the chance to truly fight for something in their lives. Imagine not having the basic tools to be successful yet the system that is supposed to help you is unable to because its under served and underfunded. Plus you have little to no exposure to even ideas of what you could actually do to help change your own future... so many children are lost every day and even killed just because they lack inspiration and access to basic tools they could use to create a better future for themselves.

We have enacted the OPEN Door Initiative to empower and secure our future by providing laptops and digital resources to children so that they too can feel confident in pursuing their dreams, and creating hope for their future.

We have helped students who used to have to do PowerPoints and write essays on their parents phones just because they have no other way to do it. Students who walk to the library once their parents get home just to be able to use a computer for 30 minutes to check their homework... meanwhile many other students aren't so lucky, unfortunately. Yet so many have such brilliant ideas and dreams. We must DO SOMETHING to help them. We are taking a stand as youth to empower other youth through our program.

Students send us their dreams in video form and how a computer can help them pursue that dream.

We need your help to help us raise money, awareness, and overall be a part of our family, a Champion.
