Summer Search is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping young people from low-income communities unleash their potential in various aspects of life. Since its establishment in 1990, Summer Search has been committed to addressing systemic inequities by providing mentoring and transformative experiences to high school students. The organization collaborates with high schools, community-based organizations, families, and supporters to offer opportunities for these students to overcome barriers and achieve success.
Summer Search's impact is evident through its alumni, who are 3 TIMES MORE LIKELY to graduate with a 4-year degree compared to their peers. These individuals go on to become influential leaders in various fields, contributing to a more equitable society. In April 2022, the organization received a $100.00K grant investment from Hearst Foundations, demonstrating external support and validation of their impactful work.
By empowering young individuals and fostering their development, Summer Search is actively shaping the future generation of leaders, advocates, and professionals. Based in the United States, the organization remains dedicated to breaking the cycle of inequity and creating opportunities for all.
