What it reported doing in 2025

Knowledge is Powerful in Literacy (KPL) After-School Program - is the organizations flagship initiative, providing structured academic enrichment in literacy, math, financial literacy, and STEAM education for underserved youth, including foster, homeless, and at-risk students. The program operates twice weekly in partnership with Chick-fil-A Wesley Chapel, creating a safe and supportive environment that includes mentorship, hands-on learning, and weekly meals to address food insecurity. During the reporting period, the program served approximately 10 students per site. Participants demonstrated measurable improvements of one to two grade levels in reading and math, along with increased confidence, communication skills, classroom engagement, and exposure to STEAM career opportunities through educational field trips.
