Our Teacher-Mentors work year-round to provide holistic, life-on-life mentorship where students can feel seen, known, heard, and loved. As we prepare for graduation this month, we get the pleasure of watching 139 seniors prepare to graduate and take the next steps toward their limitless potential.

With our Pathways To Purpose model, these seniors have been hard at work developing 2-year action plans to help them achieve upward economic mobility. By providing a space of safety, support, and empowerment, we strive to give them the tools they need to overcome any obstacle standing between them and their goals.

Shortridge High School senior Ninee says, “Elevate has helped me with career exposure and shown me the importance of networking.” We are so grateful that we can open these doors for our seniors to discover purposeful career paths and make real, actionable plans to get them there.

Congratulations to our Class of 2026 seniors!

The school year may be over, but you can still be part of Elevate’s transformational impact!

We are looking for volunteers to join us on June 12th for a beautiful day on the golf course at our annual Fellowship on the Fairways event. This annual Juneteenth celebration is one of our signature Sports & Adventure events, where you’ll engage with Elevate students and see the power of sports-based mentorship in real time.

As our students take on new challenges and step outside their comfort zone, you’ll be helping them gain the tools they need to thrive on the golf course and beyond.

When Nevaeh first stepped into the Elevate classroom four years ago, it was just a slot on her schedule. But she quickly found a space of safety, support, and tools to help her explore her options for the future.

Now a senior, Nevaeh has participated in “almost any [college visit] I’ve been able to go to” as she began to prepare for life after high school. By attending these visits, she was able to better understand her options, get to know different schools, and see what it takes to achieve her postsecondary goals.

Nevaeh is one of 130 seniors who participated in college visits with Elevate and a record-setting 141 seniors who will graduate this month. After years of mentorship and overcoming obstacles together, we are so proud of their hard work and cannot wait to watch them thrive after high school.

Congratulations to the class of 2026!
