Dedicated to supporting literacy in young men in the Bay Area, we Reach Inside to Excel.
The RITE group is a program focused on the personal, physical, mental, and spiritual growth of young boys ages 7 to 12.
Through mentorship and empowerment, we help build strong foundations for success.
RITE stands for Reach Inside to Excel. Our first session started in the Spring of 2025 and centers on literacy – encouraging boys to read engaging books and learn how to write with confidence and creativity.
We are supporting young boys to reach their full potential.
