The inaugural “Scaling Success” gala dinner benefits the following non-profit organizations that deliver
high-quality after-school and summer learning programs to disadvantaged youth across the country:

 |
Higher Achievement (www.higherachievement.org) closes the achievement gap
for 400 highly motivated economically disadvantaged middle school students per year
by offering areas an opportunity-rich, nationally recognized year-round educational
and high school preparatory program. The program occurs after school and during
the summer and culminates in top high school placement. “Scaling Success” will
help Higher Achievement expand its program in Baltimore, MD. |

Harlem RBI (www.harlemrbi.org) offers a unique year-round youth development
