Strive.Green is a partnership of local business members and community with the schools in Memphis to focus on development of children beginning with second grade students, to discover, develop and harness their leadership skills. Our goal is to help students adopt the growth mindset, build self-confidence balanced by compassion, harness their leadership skills to serve and inspire those around them while forging healthy connections that will support them to reach their full potential.
Cultivate the Mindset, Life Skills and Connections that result in lives filled with confidence.
Organize a set of volunteer mentors to partner with teachers/parents/guardians in working with kids in elementary school to cultivate the mindset, life skills and connections that most correlate to achievement.
Strive. Green will offer in-school coaching to selected students for 30 minutes per week during lunch. Each student will be matched with two volunteers. We will provide training for volunteers who will commit to coaching students for 30 minutes bi-weekly.
