Founded in 1995, Essential2Life is an organization whose vision is "to see a generation of urban youth move beyond poverty to discover a direction in their lives." The organization seeks to achieve its vision by continually and responsibly stewarding their mission "to create life-change for urban youth through mentoring and educational/career opportunity programs."
Essential2Life works directly with families in the public housing communities of Atlanta-a city that comprises a disproportionate 43% of the region's poor. Since its inception, E2L has created mentoring and educational opportunities for over 10,000 youth. It is E2L's goal to help at-risk youth "be more".
Through Fifteen, our leadership program, we offer a 3 year opportunity to Atlanta high school students that teaches leadership skills, so they can be a positive voice for their peers and pursue a life of purpose and distinction.
PUSH, our visualization center, is a structured environment that will instill marketable skills in youth from the Atlanta Public Schools to enable them to pursue careers in fields they would not have been exposed to due to lack of opportunities.
