About SAVE:

SAVE (Students, Activities, Values, Education) Program is a local nonpro?t organization that connects underserved youth with opportunities and resources to be successful students and active individuals. SAVE partners with local colleges & universities, local school districts, and extracurricular vendors to facilitate programs for 3rd-12th grade students.

SAVE o?ers two primary programs: the Academic Mentoring Program (AMP) and the Follow Through Program (FTP).

• Academic Mentoring Program (AMP) is designed for elementary school students from nine partnered schools to travel to either Bellevue University, Creighton University, Metropolitan Community College, or University of Nebraska - Omaha sixteen times throughout the academic year for mentoring with college students, campus excursions, and future-readiness programming, as most of our SAVE students would be ?rst-generation college students.
• Follow Through Program (FTP) is designed for past AMP students who have moved on to middle and high school. In this program, SAVE sta? travels to students’ schools bi-weekly for mentoring, accountability and grade checks, personalized support, resource provision, and future-readiness programming.
• In addition to these two programs, any enrolled students are eligible for extracurricular and supply support. SAVE registers and pays for interested students to participate in extracurriculars around town, or provides necessary supplies for students to participate in extracurriculars in their schools.
