| History
of Success
One demonstrative measure of success is that each child completes
a college degree. Along the way, though, there are so many
reasons to celebrate: improved test scores, earning a role
in the school's musical, positive behaviors, completion of a community
service project, increased esteem. Each child's needs are
different, and the approach to helping him/her reach individual
goals varies. The guidance and support of staff and mentors,
however, are unwavering.
We're proud to report the accomplishments of the children of Boys
Hope Girls Hope of Detroit as well as those in our affiliates across
the country.
