Mission
Minds Matter connects driven and determined students from low-income families with the people, preparation, and possibilities to succeed in college, create their future, and change the world.
Begin to Build a Relationship
We know you care about where your money goes and how it is used. Connect with this organization’s leadership in order to begin to build this important relationship. Your email will be sent directly to this organization’s director of development and/or Executive Director.
We didn’t just support Minds Matter, we became part of it. From mentoring students to seeing friends lead with heart, we witnessed a community that shows up for young people in powerful, personal ways. The outcomes speak for themselves, but it was the approach, the volunteers, and the belief that zip code should never limit potential that inspired us to champion Minds Matter Southern California within Leonard Green.
