Today, founder Deryck Toles' vision has grown to offer a number of after-school educational programs in different cities that help students prepare for their future such as exposure trips and college visits around the country, college readiness and professional development. Over the years, students and parents have participated in youth sports teams, community events and fundraising for children during the holiday season.
