IGNITING PURPOSE – INSPIRING SUCCESS – TRANSFORMING LIVES

2019 PARTNER SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

ABOUT US

Transformation Life Center is a non-profit organization cultivating future leaders to positively impact

their communities and give back to underserved youth. Our mission is to IGNITE (purpose), INSPIRE (success) and TRANSFORM (the lives) of collegiate students through four specific areas: faith,

education, leadership, health and wellness. By connecting students to premium resources and instilling in them non-traditional skills, we are providing an undeniable experience that holistically propels students to achieve and assists with a success model that our successors can implement

beyond four years.

OUR PROGRAMS

The Steps of Success 5K (SOS5K) is the most anticipated event of the year and serves as

the first point of exposure for collegiate students into our success community. The 5K

walk/run is an engagement opportunity where all of our constituents (runners,

sponsors, business professionals, students and volunteers)come together to meet

community needs. Awards are given to race participants, #IGNITE scholarships are

awarded to college students and #INSPIRE and #TRANSFORM scholars are recognized.

What makes us different? When students cross our run/walk finish line, they have the

opportunity to opt-in to the Pathway to Success Initiative, thus our mantra “More

Than A Race, A Pathway to Success.”

The Pathway to Success Initiative (P2SI) serves as the framework by which our strategy evolves

into long-term impact. It consists of four focus areas: Faith, Education, Leadership, and Health

& Wellness with two program tracks: traditional and non-traditional. The traditional track serves

students in four-year institutions. The non-traditional track serves high school students and

at-risk youth in the same focus areas, with trades as the emphasis.

Each focus area is a transformational experience combining the latest ideas, models,

curriculum, skills and tools that ignite purpose, inspire success and transform the lives of not

only collegiate students, but also, high schoolers, at risk individuals, underserved youth and young

adults. The age range for this Initiative is 15 – 24.
