The Schreiber Foundation began in 2011 with a simple idea: create an epic summer camp experience for great kids overcoming big challenges. One week with our campers inspired us to do more to ensure they had the authentic access and opportunity necessary to realize their full potential. That simple idea grew into a community, providing holistic support 365 days a year, connecting participants to opportunities, redefining the roadmap.

Based in Wilmington, NC, we are a non-profit organization that believes in a world where if you work hard, you will go far. We believe income inequality shouldn't prevent anyone from accessing education, and we work to remove the financial, social, and practical barriers standing between young men and college graduation.

Our numbers are small, allowing our impact to be deep and life-changing. We do whatever it takes to support each of our boys to and through college. We graduate game changers to become mentors, role models, professionals and leaders in their communities.

Our Process: (1) We recruit middle school boys who demonstrate superior ambition, ability, and character.  (2) We make a ten-year promise, to support them from middle school through college graduation.  (3) We do whatever it takes to replace barriers with opportunity.  (4) Through education, experience, and exposure, we support our students to achieve in middle and high school, while preparing them for the financial, social, and academic challenges of college and beyond.
