Operation HOPE is America`s first nonprofit social investment banking organization, and a global leader in "silver rights" and financial literacy empowerment. Since its inception in 1992, Operation HOPE has served more than 2 million individuals. HOPE has also directs more than $1.5 billion in private capital to America`s low-wealth communities, maintains a growing army of 20,000 HOPE Corps volunteers and serves over 300 U.S. cities, as well as South Africa, Saudi Arabia, Morocco, and the United Arab Emirates. Operation HOPE has helped to modify or restructure more than $200 million in mortgages tied to the sub-prime mortgage crisis, and helped more than 100,000 survivors of Hurricane Katrina. Our new initiative, Project 5117, launched at the end of 2013. The mission of Project 5117 is to strengthen the economy by empowering those who earn less than $50,000 a year. It is a mission that is supported by a broad range of services including homeownership counseling, credit card debt management, programs to raise credit scores to 700, small business empowerment programs and a comprehensive youth entrepreneurship-training course called HOPE Business-In-A-Box.
We work to expand career opportunities so that individuals Skilled Through Alternative Routes (STARs) can work, learn, and earn to their full potential. We envision a future where people are celebrated for the skills and potential they have, rather than defined by their level of education. Creating this future starts with changing the way we talk about the 60% of adults in the U.S. who do not have a bachelor`s degree. They may not have a degree, but they have developed valuable skills on the job, through military service, community college or other alternative routes. We recognize them as STARs – workers who are Skilled Through Alternative Routes instead of through a bachelor`s degree. In response to the economic crisis, we are working alongside our partners to rapidly advance the three pillars of work: AWAKEN employers to the value of STARs through data analysis and communications campaigns that change perceptions of workers without a bachelor`s degree and elevate STARs` skills and potential. CONNECT employers with training providers and STARs through the rapid scaling of our online marketplace which will reduce the time, cost, and perceived risk of hiring STARs. ACCELERATE learning and investment by launching the STARs Pathways Collective, activating the workforce ecosystem to support and place 10,000 STARs into middle-wage jobs within the first 3 years. Together we can ensure that STARs are at the center of our country`s equitable economic recovery so they are able to achieve both economic stability and mobility.
