Our Network Impact

as of June 30, 2022

With 45 years of experience, we see firsthand how investing in young people’s hope—and as the hope for our future— makes a transformational difference in their lives. Access to education and opportunity creates open doors to a college education, a good career, economic prosperity, healthier families, and futures with limitless possibilities.

Each school year, the Boys Hope Girls Hope Network fuels the hope of young people through signature cross-network programming; guiding and uniting local affiliates; providing scholarships to our collegians; and multiplying impact by providing economies of scale and core services. Here’s the network-wide impact you’re making possible.

Hope is Evident in Our Young People

Across our Network, Boys Hope Girls Hope serves youth who want to create successful futures for themselves. Every scholar, collegian, or alumni story is unique and powerful. Each individual experienced different circumstances and needs that brought them to the program. And, each one set audacious goals, worked hard, leveraged their strengths, served well, and is charting their own course.

Hope is Transforming Our Communities

One of the core aspects of the Boys Hope Girls Hope experience is to become a “person for others.” This is inspired by our Jesuit roots, and involves helping our scholars develop a good sense of self; to reflect on the causes they are passionate about; to serve others in need often; to become champions for others and true changemakers in their families and communities.
