Future Foundation: the pathway out of poverty is education.

The pathway out of poverty is education. It is a path that must be filled with supportive adults that help youth connect with their own resilience. It must provide access to resources and information - or as Future Foundation calls it, "real talk" - and a sense of community.  Safe afterschool places to study and play. Career exposure, college tours, financial literacy tools, access to scholarships. Hope. Trust. Dreams. Empowerment.

Founded in 2001, Future Foundation provides holistic support to 1,500 youth in East Point, College Park and the surrounding area just south of Atlanta. We seek to improve the life chances of youth through a five point wrap-around strategy which incorporates relationship skill development, academic enrichment, family supports, life skills building, and health education. Our students receive support in their everyday environments – during school, after school, and in the home. As a result, 100% of Future Foundation teens graduate high school and matriculate to college - since 2007.

Join us on 4/20/16 at the Keep It 100% Luncheon in the Old Council Chambers of Atlanta City Hall. The Jean Childs Young Individual Leadership in Education Award will be presented to Curley Dossman, president of Georgia-Pacific Foundation and chairman of 100 Black Men of America, and the Ann Cramer Corporate Leadership in Education Award will be presented to Georgia Power. Become a 100% Circle Investor, support Future Foundation, and celebrate Atlanta's philanthropic commitment to education and underserved youth.
