Beat the Odds Program®
Since 1990, our Beat the Odds program has helped transform the lives of our nation's youth, equipping them on their journey into adulthood. We express profound gratitude for the support of all who have championed this program and celebrate the strengths and talents of our Beat the Odds honorees.
