About this organization
Mission
To bring life and learning opportunities to Edina students who are economically disadvantaged.
About
Academics program: This year we unlocked over 250 academic opportunities for students. These were opportunities where students wanted to get involved and the cost was a barrier. We partnered with the Edina Early Learning Center to help provide access to high-quality pre-school opportunities for our youngest learners. We did this through tuition support for four students (2 three-year-olds and 2 four-year-olds). We helped remove the barrier for students to stay connected to class communication and get homework done by providing home internet access for 30 students. Driver's education fees are a barrier preventing students in lower-income homes from gaining the mobility and opportunities a driver's license can provide. We supported 38 students by covering driver's education expenses (driver's education costs over $350 per student). When surveyed, students who took driver's education told us that the number one thing having a driver's license would help them do was- 'go get a job'. We unlocked opportunities for almost 100 students this summer with access to camps and classes through Edina Community Education.
