$50,000 Goal

A-SOL mentors South Dallas children to strengthen their education, character, and faith - transforming lives in a community where students face significant barriers to succeeding in school and life.

In South Dallas, where only 25% of students meet reading standards and 28% attend college, we believe every child deserves to thrive, regardless of ZIP code. Through Christ-centered mentoring, we help students develop academically, pursue career dreams, and grow in faith.


Impact

Our students don't just learn at our after-school program - they transform. Through:

  • One-on-one mentoring
  • Character development
  • Faith-based leadership training
  • Real-world business projects


Join us in closing the opportunity gap in South Dallas. For $2,000, you can provide one student with life-changing support and guidance. Will you help transform South Dallas, one student at a time?

- $2,000 covers all costs for a student to participate in our comprehensive program, potentially changing the trajectory of their life

Every donation, regardless of size, contributes to our mission. Whether you're providing a student with their Bible, funding a workshop that sparks a new passion, or sponsoring a full year of mentorship and growth, your support is an investment in the future of South Dallas.
