The BWEL Foundation was established in June 2018 and received its tax exemption in Aug. 2018. Our first initiative is the BWEL Scholar House initiative, a residential program for single parent families in postsecondary education.
Niche: It is the first of its kind in Wake County.
Mission: To empower families and youth to succeed in education and achieve life-long self-sufficiency.
Resolution: It was created on the premise that high-quality, affordable supportive services are essential to school success for low-income single parents and their children. By providing high-quality housing, early childhood education, academic support, and intergenerational programming, BWEL seeks to address the critical issues that impede school success for the single parent family.
