Funds will help expand their Summer Brain Gain program to reach more youth and introduce a new focus on building food skills and nutritional knowledge. This hands-on addition will complement the program’s already strong offerings in STEM, literacy, and career exploration — empowering participants with practical life skills while enriching their overall summer learning experience.
Funds will enable them to continue and expand the Power Hour program, which helps improve homework success and academic improvement. This program will provide an important supplement to school support and out of school learning.
Funds will support their efforts to provide nutritious food for over 225,000 food-insecure children over the coming year, ensuring they have access to a healthy and balanced diet critical for their cognitive and physical development.
Funds will empower Hope Harbor to provide a transformative program to 20 at-risk, homeless teens, blending preventive care, life skills, and education. Through trauma-informed support, mentorship, and academic support, teens acquire the tools to heal, grow, and establish a foundation for long-term stability, self-sufficiency, and community engagement.
