Hope Collaborative empowers kids and teens in trouble with proven life-skills workshops and great cultural events to vest them with a fighting chance. We provide partner schools and after-school programs the technology and expert access they need to implement world-class distributed life skill programs. And we provide our partners tickets to a rich schedule of after-school trips to leading education and cultural centers that inspire participants with the best of Boston culture. For disadvantaged children, cultural gateways bring awe and wonder when economic pressures create isolation and chaos.
