Catchmup Foundation

Provide support for at-risk youths to attend secondary education and cover medical expenses

CatchMUp Foundation's mission is to empower youths to advance their futures, rise out of poverty, and become leaders in our community by overcoming barriers preventing access to education. We can help to interrupt the cycle of poverty for North Carolina's most vulnerable and marginalized youth by increasing access to post-secondary education and the likelihood of graduation. However, low income students and those with disabilities tend to be less likely to enter these programs and even less likely to complete them. CatchMUp Foundation provides funding for housing, medical care, food, and non-tuition related education expenses, as well as mentorship to youths who have secured admission and tuition funding to accredited post-secondary institutions.
