The mission of our organization is to end generational poverty, one child at a time. We do this through an intense research-based mentoring program that pairs paid professional mentors 1:1 with some of the most vulnerable children in the community, starting from ages 4-6 years old, until they graduate from high school, 12+ years, no matter what! Our three long-term goals are to ensure that every child graduates from high school or obtains a GED; prevent entry into the juvenile justice system; and prevent teenage pregnancy. We have a more than 80% success rate in each long-term goal in our national network. Our model is estimated to have a $7 Return on Investment (ROI) for $1 invested, according to a study conducted by Harvard University.
