Program areas at Philadelphia Futures

Pre-college programs: Philadelphia Futures' direct service programs (sponsor-a-scholar founded in 1990 and college connection launched in 2013) provide a comprehensive array of services and resources to remove the barriers that have traditionally prevented low-income, first-generation-to-college students from achieving college success. Our pre-college programs serve students attending Philadelphia public, public charter and parochial high schools. Our pre-college programs offer (i) year-round academic enrichment; (ii) personalized college guidance; (iii) financial incentives; (iv) extracurricular clubs and activities; (v) gender-specific programming; and (vi) individualized staff support.
Outreach Futures: Philadelphia Futures' outreach Futures initiative brings the organization's services and expertise to the broader community. Outreach Futures offers a range of programs and services to students, families and youth-serving professionals throughout Philadelphia. A key component of Philadelphia Futures' outreach services is the annual publication of step up to college: Philadelphia's guide to the college preparation, application and admissions and financial aid processes. Copies of the guide are distributed to high school students, community-based organizations and the free library of Philadelphia without cost to remove any barriers to access. Content from the guide also is available through digital media.
College success services: Philadelphia Futures' college success services provide students participating in our direct service programs (sponsor-a-scholar and college connection) with individualized counseling and guidance through college. In addition to staff support, collegians receive funds for college related expenses, career counseling and a connection to internship opportunities through Philadelphia Futures' career Futures initiative. College staff also support our strategic partnerships with a range of colleges and universities.
Philadelphia Futures has a contract with the charles e. ellis trust to administer funds to eligible Philadelphia high school girls for tuition and educational enrichment. Expenses are those associated with the administration of the trust. Additionally, Philadelphia Futures administered 2 programs in Philadelphia which awarded students for their academic accomplishments.
