Welcome to the Power of 1000 Initiative
Empowering Futures, One Student at a Time
Power of 1000 is a bold 2025 initiative aiming to connect 1,000 dedicated mentors with 1,000 students, creating a supportive network that fosters personal and academic growth.
Help us reach our goal of 1,000 mentors for 1,000 students. Together, we can empower the next generation to thrive.
ADC was founded in 2016 to help lessen the gap of college access for 1st and 2nd generation immigrant students of African heritage. ADC engage targeted student communities by delegating appropriate mentors to ensure proper guidance, support, and resources. This requires us to seek more amazing mentors for our students.
Further, this mentor-mentee dynamic will demonstrate the importance of college within the proper sociocultural context of the student. Through this approach, we ensure both the receptiveness of scholars as well as their persistent participation in all ADC’s workshops, events, and programs .
