The student-run nonprofit, the Advancement Through Education Program, strives to end the generational cycle of poverty through education. There are two parts to the organization’s mission: It sponsors adult students who are studying for the GED exam and currently is trying to build up a mentor program with at-risk middle students. We are currently looking for students who are interested in getting involved in the organization itself, as well as student mentors who are willing to have a bimonthly commitment to mentoring a middle school student.

Students who are interested can email Olivia Kropf at oliviakropf@gmail.com.
