THE CHALLENGES CHILDREN FACE

Some of the challenges our “Littles” face can be daunting. They often live below poverty level, in single-parent homes or a foster home. Many also find themselves in underperforming schools. Currently, the high school graduation rate in Los Angeles County is only 60%. However, the close relationship that develops between a child and caring adult in a mentoring setting is the “active ingredient” that builds a child’s self-esteem, nurtures their confidence and improves their academic performance. The help of a Mentor, with the support of our professionally trained and certified staff, is the kind of support that can change the life of a child for the better, forever.

Our mission is to inspire, educate, and equip underserved teens with the skills needed to thrive in college, their careers, and adulthood.

We envision a world where there are higher college graduation rates, higher lifetime earnings, fewer avoidable health crises, larger net worths, higher life satisfaction scores, and more. Simply put, we want to create a future where people are happier, healthier, and more successful.

Join us in helping leaders create healthy, thriving churches in poor neighborhoods, empowering the poor to own and lead their own ministry

Founded in 2009, the Baylor Collaborative on Hunger and Poverty began with the goal of making sure every Texan had access to three nutritious meals each day. Using a collective impact approach, the Baylor Collaborative worked alongside local communities to build coalitions of likeminded stakeholders committed to ending hunger in their communities and partnered with school districts and community organizations to make sure more children had access to meals outside of school.

Today, the Baylor Collaborative continues to partner with stakeholders across Texas, the nation, and the globe fighting to end hunger. Our partnerships allow us to pioneer research, to test and evaluate innovative models for ending hunger, and to collaborate with leaders to scale those ideas for maximum impact. We believe no one sector can end hunger alone, and cross-sector collaboration propels us toward our vision of a world without hunger.

This future is rooted in the values of solidarity, pride and belonging; we envision a healthy democracy and society in which AANHPIs can thrive. We firmly believe nothing changes until narratives change.
