The Crisis
Most of Florida’s youth in poverty will never complete college.
Low-income and minority children face insurmountable obstacles that make finishing high school difficult and going to college almost impossible. Right now, almost 60% of Florida children are living in poverty and the numbers are increasing every year.
Less than half of high school students living in poverty will graduate high school. Of those that do graduate, only half will attend college.
College graduates are less likely to be unemployed and will earn an average of $10,000-$16,000 more a year over those students who only finish high school.
We help students graduate from high school with the knowledge and skills they need to graduate college and successfully enter the work force.
