more about eagle academy

The Eagle Academy Foundation develops and supports a network of all male, grades 6 through 12, college-preparatory schools in challenged, urban communities that educate and mentor young men into future leaders committed to excellence in character, scholastic achievement and community service, and to promote these principles nationally.

The Eagle Academy Foundation empowers at-risk inner city young men to realize their academic and civic potential with quality immersive learning experiences and proven community based practices that address short falls in public education.

Eagle’s high school graduation rate is 87% versus the 59% national average for young men of color and 98% of their scholars were accepted to college, including prestigious institutions such as Morehouse, the University of Pennsylvania, the United States Military Academy at West Point, and Carnegie Mellon University. Most importantly, all Eagle Academy young men embrace the ideal that hard work and strong character combined with academic achievement define success.

 Eagle Academy has been described as one of the “beacons of light with outstanding leaders that are doing a great job saving hundreds of children.”

NIFT

Nift is a startup that recently launched in the Washington, DC metro area, helping to support the local community by bringing great people (you) and great local businesses together. With many small businesses struggling to stay afloat against e-commerce and big-box stores, Nift has created a network for small businesses to send each other new customers. We partnered with NIFT to provide our customers with a $30 gift card to use towards a local business. Small businesses are what makes our communities what they are and we want to leverage our customer base to supporting them.
