Friends of the Children - San Francisco Bay Area

Friends of the Children - sf Bay Area identifies and enrolls kindergarteners who face the biggest systemic barriers to success, then provides each child with a salaried, professional mentor to walk beside them through high school graduation - 12+ years, no matter what! Our simple yet radical mentoring model has a nearly thirty-year track record demonstrating that our Children break the generational cycles into which they were born: 83% graduate high school; 93% remain free of the juvenile justice system; 98% wait to parent until after their teen years; and 92% go on to enroll in post-secondary education, enter the workforce or serve our country.
