The Problem We're Solving
Memphis Youth Face Critical Barriers to Success
Memphis struggles with persistently low high school graduation rates, particularly among youth from low-income families and marginalized backgrounds. This educational disparity perpetuates cycles of poverty and limits future prospects for young adults seeking to break generational barriers.
Stark Reality:
Nearly 25% of Memphis youth under 18 live in poverty
Many students lack access to essential college materials due to financial constraints Educational inequities limit higher education opportunities
Without intervention, cycles of poverty continue across generations
