PROGRAMS

Operating with purpose, one step at a time.

Student Empowerment Initiatives
Our Student Empowerment initiatives are all about providing students with the tools and support they need to thrive—both academically and personally. By addressing immediate needs, we create an environment where every student can focus on learning and building a brighter future.
Focus Areas
  • Annual Bundle Up & Pack Up:
    Through our annual Bundle Up & Pack Up event, we provide students with warm clothing, school supplies, and even food items to ensure they return to school after winter break feeling prepared, confident, and cared for. This initiative eases the financial burden on families and helps students focus on what truly matters—learning and growing.

  • Care Kits & Community:
    Our Care Kits & Community events bring together volunteers to assemble Bundles of Care, including EmpowerHer Kits, Youth Confidence Kits, and Kid Confidence Kits. These kits provide essential hygiene items and personal care products, ensuring students can focus on their education without the barrier of unmet basic needs.

Classroom Heroes Initiatives
Our Classroom Heroes Initiatives recognize that supporting teachers directly benefits students. By alleviating some of the financial and material pressures faced by educators, we help create positive, nurturing learning environments where every child can succeed.
Focus Areas
  • Teacher Supply Cabinets:
    With Tennessee ranking 44th in teacher pay nationwide, many educators use their own funds to supply their classrooms. Our Teacher Supply Cabinets initiative aims to establish fully stocked supply cabinets in all Jefferson County Schools, offering teachers the materials they need without added financial strain. We are actively seeking funding and community support to make this vision a reality.

  • Scholarship Program:
    Our Scholarship Program offers financial support to youth aged 18-21 who hold a diploma or GED, helping them pursue higher education at universities, colleges, or vocational schools. We are committed to bridging gaps in opportunity and providing pathways to success for deserving students who might not qualify for traditional scholarships.
