Helping highly-motivated, underprivileged youth get to and through college.

$300

raised by 5 people

$1,000 goal

Did you know that twenty percent of Lincoln’s children live in poverty? Many youth living in poverty have the potential to be the next great leaders in our community yet lack the resources to do so. Boys Hope Girls Hope opened Hope College Center in 2015 with the objective to change this. From our history serving this demographic, we know that with hope comes resilience. We know that the best way to break the poverty cycle is through education. Getting a first generation college aspirant through college, gives them career opportunities that will change their lives and the lives of their families. We help turn their dreams into diplomas, by providing the necessary support so each of our scholars can become the best version of themselves.

With locations in 15 other cities and 3 international locations, we know a bit about getting kids to college. Since 1991, 100% of our scholars have gone on to college with 96% graduating. With a partnership between Nebraska Wesleyan University and North Star High School, we are poised to give Lincoln students these opportunities as well.
