IT TAKES TWO, INC

In our committment to improving the educational journey of students living in single parent homes, our scholarships are awarded to students in grade four through college. We feel that by starting in fourth grade we can begin to cultivate an attitude of academic excellence; we can start to formulate students' thinking so that once they reach high school they are prepared to pursue higher education opportunities with increased ease.

Five scholarships are awarded each year. Currently, we are serving Baltimore City and the following MD Counties: Anne Arundel, Baltimore, Charles, Prince George's, and Montgomery. To date, we have awarded 38 scholarships totaling over $14,000 to students in grades four (4) through college providing school supplies, books, uniforms, academic and sports registration fees, laptops, internet, and tutoring for the school year.

Students' social and emotional well-being is important to their academic success; therefore, through our life skills program, Positioned for Greatness Youth Program, we assist middle and high school students through these transformative years while helping create a life after high school plan. We focus on anti-bullying, college and career readiness, youth entrepreneurship, financial literacy, community service, and leadership over the course of nine months. They attend college tours and participate in career shadow days.
