Opportunity Network
About the cause
The Opportunity Network (OppNet) serves smart, motivated and diligent low-income students. Only 10 out of every 100 low-income students who matriculate at college will actually graduate, and virtually none are prepared for careers. OppNet's mission is rooted in the belief that all students can increase their potential to graduate from college ready for careers. All OppNet Fellows come from underserved and over-burdened schools, and 88% will be the first in their family to graduate from college. Starting in the 10th grade, Fellows work with OppNet over the course of six years to gain access to career development, professional networks and college guidance and support
