How you help | Let’s Get Ready is built on relationships and we need both college students and adult volunteers to provide the ongoing mentorships our students need to close the education gap. |

About us | Studies show that by 2020, 65% of job openings in the United States will require a postsecondary degree. Yet compared to their higher-income peers, students from low-income backgrounds are less than half as likely to attend college, or even apply to a well-matched one, and only one-fifth as likely to graduate. Let’s Get Ready’s peer-driven Program Model empowers our students to close that achievement gap. Services are provided by volunteer college students who also serve as role models and mentors. |
