Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

Our goal is to give out up to 10 scholarships ranging from $1000 to 10,000 to at-risk high school youth.

We raise money with Grants, Fundraising, and corporate sponsorships.
We support youth from the high schools in our county. We also conduct workshops for the youth.

We have been doing this for over twenty years and now we are doing this as a nonprofit. We have a good reputation in the community. We also have strong leadership with many years of experience.

Before we started the nonprofit we gave away over $250,000 in scholarships. The next goal is to give away larger and more scholarships.
