Quality
The exemplary programs for kids at the Metro Achievement Center for girls and the Midtown Center for boys are made possible expressly through the generous donations from individuals, business, and foundations sharing our desire to help inner-city kids.
Role Models
Kids receive enriching guidance, instruction, and support from volunteers. If you would like to volunteer to tutor at-risk boys or girls please let us know.
Growth
We give Chicago's inner-city kids the chance to excel during the regular school year and during the summer. Girls get tutoring, mentoring, and personal attention at the Metro Achievement Center for girls. Boys get the same at the Midtown Center for boys.
