Changing Lives Through Relationships
Elevate Oregon is a non-profit organization serving youth in communities with high rates of childhood poverty. Elevate supports students in the Parkrose, Reynolds, and David Douglas school districts of East Portland, three of the most diverse districts in Oregon.
Our year-round mentoring program integrates with the core high school curriculum to raise graduation rates and college enrollment, offering career development for mainly students of color in the 6th-12th grades. We start early building impactful relationships, with daily mentoring and support in/outside school for 3rd–5th graders.
Laying a Foundation for Success
With the help of our community partners, our goal is to repair generational inequity within the school districts we serve. Our certified Teacher/Mentors empower youth through 1:1 mentoring, in-school programming, and out of school activities, to give students the academic and life skills they need to thrive in the face of significant challenges.
