A Better Chance of Andover

Our Mission: To reduce inequity in education by providing young Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) academic and leadership opportunities.

A Better Chance of Andover provides academically talented young women of color an opportunity to grow, thrive, and become leaders. Accepted Scholars attend Andover High School and have access to its expansive college preparatory and leadership programs. The Scholars live in a dormitory setting on Main Street and are supported by academic advisors, college counselors, a host family, and a community of volunteers. To date, over 150 alumni have gone on to college. Your participation in our event will not only support critical program operating costs such as room and board, but will also help to fund leadership development and enrichment opportunities for our Scholars as they pursue their dreams for the future.
