“My injury has not only strengthened me as a person, it has also given me the second chance to do something positive with my life such as reaching out to adolescents throughout the community and raising awareness on various obstacles one may encounter in life.” – Miguel Rivera

“My injury has not only strengthened me as a person, it has also given me the second chance to do something positive with my life such as reaching out to adolescents throughout the community and raising awareness on various obstacles one may encounter in life.” – Miguel Rivera
A few nights before Miguel’s first day of college. A night of drinking and having fun with his friends led him to make an unconscious decision. He attempted to drive himself home, but before he could reach his destination, he crashed into a side railing off of the 5 freeway that led to his car being catapulted down into a ditch that left him with the inability to walk. He was only 18 years old.

What We Do
We provide tuition-assistance scholarships to graduating high school seniors as they begin their journey in higher education.
We provide public school teachers with a classroom set of supplies through our classroom sponsorship program.
In collaboration with schools and community partners, we provide backpacks, school supplies, books, and food to students in need.
The Need
California has the highest total student loan debt among resident borrowers – $120 billion. There are more than 44 million borrowers who collectively owe $1.7 trillion in student loan debt in the U.S. alone, the second highest consumer debt category.
94% of public school teachers spend their own money on classroom supplies without reimbursement. On average, teachers spend $479 a year on classroom supplies.
60% of U.S. parents struggle to pay for their child’s school supplies. The price of school supplies remains a challenge for low-income households.
