2018-2019When we look back on the history of this educational year, we will recall rapidly changing technological innovation; a focus on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math) majors and fields; and continued discussion about how our nation will close the achievement gap that exists between first-generation students of color and their peers. We will remember wide-ranging perspectives about declining college enrollment and impassioned social and political discourse about the rising costs of higher education.

After 42 years of nurturing and guiding young people to graduate high school and to become well-educated, career-ready men and women for others, Boys Hope Girls Hope continues to strive for excellence while addressing the issues our scholars face in the times in which we live. We sow and water seeds of hope in the lives of tomorrow’s history makers.

In 2019, Boys Hope Girls Hope celebrated its largest class of high school graduates ever...139! Our network and affiliate teams helped these scholars attain admission and secure aid and scholarships to continue their educational journeys. We are working together with administrators and admissions professionals to build strong university partnerships that create mutual opportunity for our students to affordably attend college, and for universities to benefit from their preparedness, reslience, creativity and brilliance. And, we are looking ahead to develop new curricula that will better position our scholars for jobs of the future.

We are proud of these accomplishments, but our work doesn’t stop here. We have much to do and we are committed to ensuring every motivated young person has access to education, opportunity...and most of all, hope.

You Go, Dr. Braswell!Each year, we are inspired and humbled by those, who with the partnership of Boys Hope Girls Hope, achieve a dream and continue to set new goals. We don’t try to take credit for our scholars’ successes. We’re just grateful to say Boys Hope Girls Hope is a part of their lifetime journeys. Daniel Braswell, who received his clinical doctorate degree in Physical Therapy in 2019, is an alumnus of Boys Hope Girls Hope of Cincinnati, and an inspiration to us all.

“This is for my ancestors who dreamt of freedom while they worked the thick red earth beneath a scorching Georgia sun. This is for my Grandma Mattie, my biggest fan, the strongest woman I’ve ever known, and one of my greatest inspirations. This is for my family who’ve encouraged me to take advantage of a formal education because they remember marching in the South when they didn’t have an opportunity to earn one.

This is for that professor who told me eight years ago that I wasn’t smart enough to earn a bachelor’s degree. This is for the countless hours of homework, sleepless nights, and morning delirium all as part of the daily grind. This is for every job I’ve had to make ends meet so I could remain in school.

This is for pushing myself to achieve in the midst of fighting hell to maintain mental health. This is for the time I’ve spent losing that constant battle. This is for the naiveté in thinking my strength was the solution to every problem and for the moments I tested whether my body or mind would break first. This is for those who’ve loved broken pieces of me when that’s all I had to give. This is for the introspection, vulnerability, self-love, and growth needed to overcome destination happiness and to enjoy the present.

This is for the brothers I gained in Boys Hope Girls Hope who’ve enraged me and given me the best full-bodied laughs I could ever have. This is for the brothers I’ve lost to gun violence and those fighting a steep uphill battle against poverty. This is for the village of people of all colors and creeds who thought I was worthwhile and invested tremendously into seeing me thrive. This is for Dr. Robert Heidt who opened doors to my career in health care. This is for the young boy or girl to whom I’ll pay it forward some day.

This is for knowing my worth, having a vision and unyielding effort toward creating a life that I deserve. This is me assigning a reason to all of my trials and triumphs. This is for every rose that grows from concrete.”

Breaking Boundaries, Building Legacies104 of our 114 U.S. graduates gathered on the campus of Saint Louis University June 26-30 for their culminating experience as Boys Hope Girls Hope scholars—Collegiate Prep 2019.

Each year Boys Hope Girls Hope hosts this important week-long event which combines dynamic speakers, community building, mentoring, networking, fun outings, and a pre-college campus stay. All activities are designed to help scholars navigate their transition to college, connect with each other, share their personal stories and experiences in the program, and learn about the many resources available to them through Boys Hope Girls Hope and their college communities. Collegiate Prep is a key component in scholars building the confidence and knowledge they need to meet the challenges they will face to obtain their degrees.

College Call Out!100% of our graduating senior scholars have a plan to attend college. At the Closing Ceremony of Collegiate Prep 2019, held at World Wide Technology’s global headquarters in St. Louis, each scholar announced his or her name, affiliate, college of choice, and major area of study for donors, board members and peers.

Our U.S. and Latin American scholars are taking flight and moving to dormitories near and far—from California to South Carolina and from Detroit to Guatemala—where they will have tremendous impact on their campus communities. They join collegians and alumni from prior classes who are living out limitless potential. Boys Hope Girls Hope supports them on their journeys to and through college and into the world of work.

Our Academic YearIn Latin America, the academic year is different than in the United States. For our scholars at Esperanza Juvenil in Guatemala, the school year runs from January to October. At Ser y Crecer, our affiliate in Mexico, the school year begins in August and ends in July.

Keep Smiling, Sandra!About 10 years ago, Esperanza Juvenil opened an educational center in a house it purchased and renovated in Guatemala City. A girl in her early teens worked as a nanny caring for a baby in the house next door. She would prop her elbow up on the window with her face in her hand and watch the scholars come and go to school every day with a look of longing. Today, Sandra Lizeth del Carmen Alvizures Lemus has now graduated college as an alumna of the program and gives her whole community a reason to smile.

One day, the owners of the house where she worked came and told Lucas Pinzon, Executive Director of Esperanza Juvenil, that they were going to sell their house. They wanted to give Boys Hope Girls Hope the first right to buy the home to further expand its educational center. It was a great opportunity and the funds were raised to purchase the property. As the deal was closing, the family asked if Esperanza Juvenil would also consider accepting Sandra, a girl who worked for them, into the program. They went on to explain that Sandra had an elementary education and wanted to continue studying. Sandra was very bright and kind. Her family was at first resistant to the idea of her leaving work and continuing her education, but with help from the team, they came around and saw the potential. A couple of years later, Sandra’s sister Delia also joined the program. They both graduated with degrees in education from la Universidad del Valle, one of the top universities in Guatemala. The two sisters are now strong women who are contributing to their own families and setting a great example for girls and women in Guatemala.

“I am the second daughter of a family of five born in a village called Paraíso Palencia, in Guatemala. My situation used to be very sad, because in my village, education for girls is not relevant. My parents decided to support my education only for three years in the community school. After that, it was expected that I hold a job to support my family financially, as my father worked in agriculture and my mother was a stay-at-home mom. After working for six years, I luckily found out about Esperanza Juvenil, which would help me to achieve my dreams. Once I became a part of the organzation, I felt like I was in a family. It was a radical change! I began a route towards academic success. Esperanza Juvenil supported me from first grade up to the last day of my college graduation. Thanks to Esperanza Juvenil, I majored in Special Education and I am now equipped to contribute my knowledge to teachers and educational institutions in the village where I am from. I thank all of the people that make Esperanza Juvenil possible, as given it exists, it can change the lives of many kids and youth.”
