Non-Profit - Revere, MA, US
Impact- U is focused on two programs: Short-term and Long-term. In the Short term, we will provide financial assistance to students who are attending undergraduate programs at public universities and who are at risk of dropping out for budgetary reasons. They normally originate from rural areas, far from main cities and the lack of adequate funds is a significant barrier to continually achieving their educational goals. Regarding our Long-term programs, we plan to conduct outreach and train high school students from towns and villages far from the main cities. The goal is for these at-risk students to have access to and pass public university entrance exams. A major barrier to these gifted students, is having the basic funding needed solely to sit for a public university entrance exam. Subsequently, we will continue providing them with financial support and sponsorship during their undergraduate program term.Our Goals1. We believe that education is a fundamental human right that encourages and foments the existence of other rights. An educated society is comprehensive, sustainable and promotes individual development. Latin America and the Caribbean's educational systems are marked by profound inequality and Colombia as a nation is no stranger to this reality. We want to help people who have low incomes to accomplish their professional studies. We will be impacting individuals, communities and subsequently a society as a whole. 2. The majority of the members of the board have experienced difficult and adverse situations during their individual academic experiences. It was only through the support from others that they were able to achieve their goals. It is time to give it back to society. We want to work together with many people who want to repay to society the help they received. We call it the butterfly effect. 3. Impact-U will conduct social projects to those vulnerable communities where selected students belong.
