Sponsors
Support Surge Pathways Mentorship by funding student access, closing scholarship gaps, and helping schools and families connect young men to a structured 90-day mentorship cycle built around discipline, leadership, and personal growth.
Fund Student Access and Scholarship Support
Surge Pathways Mentorship uses a shared funding model to keep the program accessible for families while preserving clear participation pathways for schools, courts, and community partners. Sponsorship helps close the scholarship gap for parent-referred and school-referred students, making it possible for more young men to participate in a structured 12-week mentorship cycle without placing heavy financial pressure on households.
Why sponsorship matters
Sponsorship directly expands access to mentorship. Every sponsored dollar helps close the gap between what families or schools can contribute and the full $750 value of one 90-day participant placement. This allows Surge Pathways Mentorship to remain mission-driven, accessible, and structured for long-term impact.
