- Equipping youth with skills, confidence, and a sense of social responsibility that empowers them to give back to the community and become future leaders.
- Providing a safe space where community youth can come together to support each other and share in common identities and experiences.
- Advocating for access to resources and opportunities our youth need to succeed.
OUR IMPACT
Since 2003, Project: VISION has empowered over 2,000 underprivileged Asian American youth in Chicago through free educational and leadership development programs. Serving students in grades 6-12, PV provides tutoring, ACT/SAT prep, career readiness workshops, and leadership training to help students succeed academically and build essential life skills. The organization also fosters social responsibility through service projects and mentorship opportunities, equipping students with the confidence and tools to achieve their goals and give back to their communities. Last year alone, PV served a record 460 students, delivering over 87,000 hours of tutoring, mentorship, and career readiness services. These programs continue to inspire students to succeed, grow, and contribute to brighter futures for themselves and their communities.
