OUR MISSION:

Building long-term life changing relationship with urban youth equipping them to thrive and contribute to their community.

What Makes Us Unique?

TEACHER-MENTORS REPRESENTIVE OF STUDENTS

Teacher-mentors are hired from the community or similar backgrounds, so they can relate to the students and serve as role models.

YEAR-ROUND PROGRAMMING

Programs are not limited to the school year, being offered year around after-school, on weekends, and summer break.

CROSS AGE MENTORING

High school students visit a local elementary school each week to to teach the same character qualities and life skills they are learning in class; becoming leaders and role models.

LONG TERM RELATIONSHIP APPROACH

Teacher-mentors work with students from year to year, allowing for a "pipeline" of influence from 2nd through 12th grade.
