Access to Private School Education: Partnerships with top private schools provide a rigorous academic environment and enriching extracurricular activities.
-
Holistic Support: Early engagement, advising, tutoring, and summer programs address each scholar's academic, emotional, and personal needs.
-
Dedicated Mentorship: Each scholar is paired with a mentor for the duration of the program who offers guidance and support throughout their journey.
-
College Advising: We assist scholars with college applications, financial aid, and the transition to higher education. Scholars continue their partnership with Challenge Foundation throughout college.
