PCCE- Tiger Woods Foundation VISTA

The mission of the TGR Foundation is to empower students to pursue their passions through education. With over 20 years of experience, TGR has developed national programs that provide students from under-resourced communities with access to education, opportunities for personal growth, and the tools they need to prepare for a successful future. The community surrounding the TGR Learning Lab in Philadelphia faces significant challenges related to education equity and access to quality learning opportunities. Many students in this area come from under-resourced schools, lacking access to STEM programs, career readiness training, and extracurricular support. The need includes providing students with hands-on STEM experiences, leadership development, and mentorship to close the achievement gap. Additionally, there is a strong need for academic support, career exploration, and resources that foster curiosity and lifelong learning, empowering students to succeed in school and beyond. An AmeriCorps VISTA at the TGR Learning Lab can be an integral part of the community by helping to bridge the gap between the lab's resources and the needs of local youth. A VISTA can collaborate with schools, community organizations, and families to identify challenges and implement programs that offer students access to STEM, career readiness, and leadership opportunities. By building partnerships, developing volunteer networks, and securing resources, a VISTA can enhance educational equity, empowering students while fostering long-term community development. Their work will directly address educational disparities and support systemic change.
