Breakthrough Sacramento uses the power of education to radically change the lives of Sacramento’s youth in under-resourced schools, and inspires students who desire to become teachers.


Sacramento vs Breakthrough Students 2023

Our Impact

Breakthrough Sacramento believes in the power of education to radically change lives, families, and communities. Students join Breakthrough before 7th grade and receive ongoing support through high school completion, while inspiring committed, talented, high school and college students from around the country to teach our students and to pursue careers in education. As a six-year program, Breakthrough mentors and tutors students to successfully navigate high school, assist them with college counseling as they make their college selection, and works to ensure they thrive in college and beyond.

 
 
A growing body of knowledge shows that what happens to students between the ages of 10 to 14 determines not only their success in school, but success in life as well.
