Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
Our staff and volunteer base try to become another "parent" in the lives of our students. Education, improving one's GPA at school, with the idea of achieving a 3.00 GPA, is a primary goal. Technology resources provided to each student since many do not have access at home.
Recently we have added good nutrition habits and regular physical exercise components to fight against childhood obesity.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
Provide educational resources and incentives.
Provide a safe environment.
Provide responsible and positive adult role models.
Provide transportation to ensure regular attendance and safely returned home.
Provide all the above at NO COST to the children and youth we serve.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
SNC has been operating for over 30 years.
Facility is three floors of classroom and activity space, and a gym.
We have earned the trust and support of the local families and schools in the neighborhoods we serve.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
SNC keeps tabs on all of our current students whose educational stats are published annually in our SNC Education Report.
