BACKGROUND
The Organization
Since its founding in 1984, STRIVE’s purpose has been singular: to ensure that everyone can achieve upward mobility and financial empowerment for themselves and their families.
Over the following decades, STRIVE has honed a unique workforce model that provides a pathway to life-changing careers and opportunities through comprehensive professional training, intensive personal support, and self-empowerment for those who face societal barriers to advancement. It has since catapulted the careers of nearly 90,000 alumni.
Beginning in East Harlem, and now operating throughout New York City, Atlanta, Birmingham, and New Orleans and through a network of affiliate partners, STRIVE, guided by a new 10-Year Growth Plan, by 2033, will operate sites in up to 20 major US cities, increasing the number of students it serves annually from 2,000 to 10,000. STRIVE can do this work because every member of its board, leadership, and staff—dating back to its founders—is committed to the idea that all human beings are deserving of dignity and livable participation in the labor market. STRIVE is unequivocal in stating plainly that systemic inequality exists and that it must be eradicated.
