We respectfully ask you for a philanthropic investment to support the program budget of the GAP Academy. We provide innovative, solution-oriented programs to youth and their parents and have increased our students’ academic skill performance by over 55% in STEM subjects. Your philanthropic investment will help create and play an increasingly important role in helping the GAP Academy achieve its mission and enable our programs to be offered to students in a manner, which is affordable and sustainable.
Supporting the GAP Academy will…
1) Make available opportunities for youth to learn, engage, and collaborate with college students, educators, and community organizations who are interested in addressing the institutional gap that has occurred for children of color and those who are poor.
2) Improve access to high-quality education for students, which is critical for empowering all Americans to lead rich and productive lives and contribute to the betterment of our society.
3) Provide scholarships to assist students with program and college course costs.
4) Support parents in being an advocate for their child’s education, understand how to navigate the education system, and learn about community resources and opportunities that are available.
