Our Mission
Save The Students is a dynamic organization that empowers youth through direct service, working to close the achievement gap in the most underserved communities. Our programs support student’s academic and personal success beyond K-12 education, cultivating lifelong learners prepared for success. Our work is driven to expand impactful initiatives that ensure robust student support.
Through strategic collaboration with partners, we leverage our expertise to dismantle systemic barriers and foster effective communication with younger generations. Committed to an equitable and inclusive future, Save The Students continues to evolve, steadfast in its mission to ensure every student's success.
In response to the academic and emotional challenges intensified by the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly among low-income students, Save The Students remains a vital resource for students, families, and communities. The isolation and inequity brought on by remote learning have further stressed the importance of emotional intelligence and access to support systems.
Save The Students acknowledges the challenges students across the country are currently facing and is committed to providing vital support. There is no better time to Save The Students than right now.
