The program seeks to enable the youth to compete more successfully for employment, to be better qualified for higher education, to achieve greater personal fulfillment, and to contribute productively to society.
We assist youth from moderately low to low-income families in achieving a quality high school education through the guidance of mentor and tuition assistance. Families, mentors, and schools form a partnership to help youth attain the tools to succeed. Our purpose is to foster hope and break the cycle of poverty and frustration that limits many youth in our society.
