The space provided a sense of belonging and togetherness where we felt safe and empowered to discuss the struggles as well as success we have had dealing with systematic racism, anti Blackness as well as white supremacy within our individual lives.

I believe this space that’s been created and helps Black kids is great. An amazing organization that I would have loved my daughter to be on. From hearing her brother’s sessions she often asks ‘When is my tutoring?’ This is a testament that clearly demonstrates the strong appeal of your program to kids!
