About this Event
The Breakfast...
The Elevate Vision Breakfast is designed for individuals who want to see the trajectory of crime, poverty, lack of education and hopelessness change for kids in the inner-city of Birmingham -- and throughout the country. We believe in the power of relationships to change the heart of a child. The model of Elevate is to hire full-time Teacher-Mentors to teach an accredited curriculum on Character and Leadership in public school classrooms -- and for those Teacher-Mentors to serve as a reliable adult model and mentor to these kids when the school bell rings.
Our student surveys show that 70% of our inner-city youth do not live with their biological father, or feel they have a reliable adult in their lives. Elevate changes that reality. Your support of Elevate changes the life of an inner-city child in a tangible, practical life-changing way!
Elevate Overview...
Elevate is the sole program in the nation that hires full-time individuals who work as Teacher-Mentors in public school classrooms. We assign three (3) Teacher-Mentors to a single classroom to teach accredited courses for a letter grade on 'Character and Leadership'.
When the school bell rings at day's end, our teacher-mentors have a unique platform to provide the love and warmth of caring adults in a mentoring relationship, which Mentoring Relationship is 24/7!
-- The video, , provides a wonderful overview.
-- Read the to learn more about how this 40-year-old program covering 20 cities and reaching 20,000 inner-city kids is making a difference. The Report provides the results of BEFORE and AFTER surveys that show the impact of a Teacher-Mentor relationship for three (3) successive semesters.
No Greater Impact.....
If you have a heart for changing the lives and trajectory of inner-city youth in a practical, tangible way, we would love for you to attend and learn more about impacting the most at-risk group in our community in a positive way.
We would love to have you sign up to attend and support impacting inner-city youth in Birmingham through Elevate.
