WELCOME TO THE LEGACY INSTITUTE
Mentorship is extremely important, now more than ever. In 2020, an already existing educational achievement gap grew even bigger when global pandemic COVID-19 forced schools to close their doors. This placed the responsibility
of education on parents. Unfortunately, a lot of parents struggled with everyday needs with their children, work schedules and being effective home educators. During this time, parents have faced difficulty teaching their students virtually due to lack of time, educational knowledge and resources. This program is designed to assist parents by providing opportunities for their children to learn more about their history, school subjects and other important life lessons they would not ordinarily learn in school.
There are three ultimate goals of this program. First, we will help participants build a greater sense of self, self-worth and understanding of their history and culture. Second, participants will be paired with mentors and gain exposure to
a variety of career and occupation opportunities. Third, we will share different pathways to make college accessible to
our program participants. In an attempt to close the racial, academic and wealth gap, Legacy Institute will serve as an intellectual think tank for youth to teach, encourage and mentor them so they are able to break generational curses and achieve an unsurmountable amount of success. This program will serve as a mentorship and a scholarship program.
