Children spend 75% of their waking hours outside of the classroom, yet our nation does shockingly little to capture educational value from this time for low-income kids. Our program coaches educators and family members to help kids learn to read on grade level by 4th grade. Springboard Collaborative envisions a world where all children have the requisite literacy skills to access life opportunities. Nationally, we are the only organization to have cracked the code on equipping marginalized families to teach reading at home. At Springboard Collaborative, family-educator collaboration is the most joyful, culturally affirming, and cost-effective way to give kids access to high-quality instructional time. Our recipe for impact is a method called Family-Educator Learning Accelerators (or FELAs). FELAs are 5-to-10-week cycles during which families and educators team up to help kids reach learning goals. When educators and families collaborate, the results are extraordinary. In districts that struggle to get 20% of parents to attend report card conferences, Springboard Collaboratives weekly family workshops average 88% attendance. For every hour that a teacher leads a workshop, parents deliver 25 hours of tutoring at home. As a result, students average 4-5 months of reading gain during each program cycle, closing the gap to grade level by half in just five or ten weeks.
The Goizueta Investment Management Group (GIMG) is a student-managed investment fund at Emory Universitys Goizueta Business School. GIMG currently manages ~$350,000 of Emorys endowment in long-only Equity and Fixed Income Funds. In addition to our investment activities, we are extremely passionate about using our resources to help teach financial literacy to underserved youth in the Atlanta area. Our group was founded in 2011, as the result of an effort by Corey Moore (BBA 12) and Shawn Shivalkar (BBA 11) who teamed up with the administration to launch GIMG. The vision for the group started a few years before with a generous donation from one of our most notable alumni. Since our founding, GIMG has become one of the premier student organizations in the business school. GIMG has also been committed to making a positive contribution to the Atlanta community by using our experience and resources to help bring greater financial literacy to underprivileged youth. Some of our recent partnerships with schools and youth organizations include Maynard Jackson High School, the Economic Empowerment Initiative, and Emorys own Graduation Generation. We continue to look for new opportunities to expand our impact throughout the community.
