Introducing a new way to “see” Hope! Invite your friends!

Education in Minneapolis consistently ranks at the bottom nationally for our children of color. We want more people to hear how Hope Academy is changing that story for hundreds of youth in our city. Will you help?

Next week, we’re rolling out our first Pursuing Remarkable Experience: The Hope Academy Story. It’s a one-hour Zoom experience where we unpack the urban education crisis, explain how Hope Academy is offering a proven solution, and share how it is impacting our city, one life at a time.

Who do you know who hasn’t visited Hope? How about you–have you seen Hope Academy for yourself?

Invite your friends! Click for details, and to register.

Each event is limited to 20 people. Private events available on request.
