Welcome

BASE believes that real progress in the fight to end poverty and in the struggle to attain the experience of a quality education can only be achieved when successful young people invest in the foundations of their communities.

Utilizing after school and summer programs starting in high school, BASE helps young people develop the academic rigor, social confidence and professional experience needed to succeed in college and beyond. BASE funnels young people through their education experience into multiple pathways to become accomplished, caring and productive members of society.

Company Highlights

"BASE is doing incredible work…..Their model is very well thought out and produces measurable outcomes and a social return.
