What started as a campus initiative at Alabama State University in 2011 has become a national pipeline, with a 100% high school graduation rate and 100% college retention rate.

The work continues

Every number is a student.

Behind the $43 million in scholarships are real seniors who walked across a graduation stage. Behind 100% retention is a coach who answered the phone at midnight. Behind every Fortune 500 placement is a mentor who said, “you can do this.”
