The Complete Player Charity

Our goal is to provide our community with an organization that is dedicated and passionate about developing young people into well-rounded young men and woman who are ready to excel and make a positive impact in the world.

We are aiming to: Develop young people into productive citizens and business leaders through a business, leadership and career and college readiness curriculum.

Our after-school program (TCP Youth Empowerment) provides students with a unique opportunity that engages them in activities that they do not experience during the school day, and access to positive role models from the community. Major goals for the program are to increase school attendance and performance, introduce and have students engage with business professionals from various industries and roles, improve or enhance students behaviors, provide pathways to employment and/or college and increase students self-esteem and self-belief.

TCP Youth Empowerment
To provide students with a high quality education we have implemented a curriculum that is developed by current college professors and business leaders in the areas of entrepreneurship, leadership and business fundamentals. In our effort to connect students with businesses we have partnered with 5 local businesses and are continuing to build new relationships with businesses of all sizes and in all industries. Business partners will also provide mentorship and internship/employment opportunities for our students during our program and when students graduate from our program.

To raise the capital we need to fund the program we are actively applying for grants and meeting with businesses to arrange multi-year financial partnerships.

To acquire the volunteers we need we have created internship opportunities with AACPS and Anne Arundel Community College as well as partnerships with local businesses. We also have 5 volunteers committed to our programs.

Currently, we have partnerships with 7 local businesses that provide either volunteers and/or money; we have 6 full time employees and/or volunteers to facilitate our programs; relationships with local college professors who teach business, leadership and/or entrepreneurship; a team of advisors that help develop, enhance and critique the curriculum; and great working relationships with local nonprofits for collaborative projects and opportunities.
