COLLEGE TOUR 2019!!!
With one fantastic college tour under our belt, Rebound, Inc. is gearing up for a bigger, better, COLLEGE TOUR 2019!!! This year, we are hitting the road with EIGHTEEN young men and women for a tour of FIVE historically black colleges and universities in three states.
Rebound, Inc. prioritizes college tours because of our core belief that if shown the possibilities for their lives, young people will achieve great things! Muhammad Ali once said, “If my mind can conceive it, and my heart can believe it - then I can achieve it.” In keeping with this framework for success, exposure to positive possibilities for their lives can be transformational for at risk youth who, with appropriate support from caring adults, can use the seed planted by these experiences to end the cycle of poverty and violence in their communities. Unfortunately, the converse is also true. Young people with perspectives limited by their surroundings can find themselves unable to conceive a future beyond their circumstances. Thanks to the generosity of our community partners, Rebound, Inc. is expanding the horizons of our youth!
