BECOME A PARTNER IN HOPE

Sponsor a Student, Ignite a Future

Catalyst Academy is offered at zero cost to our students. This is only possible through the generosity of sponsors like you who believe in the power of second chances. Your contribution directly funds a student's journey to becoming a community leader.

Become a Sponsor

The Impact of Your Sponsorship

Your gift isn't a handout; it's an investment in human potential. It's a belief in the simple idea that a past mistake should not be a life sentence of limited opportunity.

Economic Mobility

85% of graduates secure gainful employment or start a business within 6 months of graduation.

Generational Change

Your sponsorship breaks cycles, creating a ripple effect of stability and hope for families and communities.

Reduced Recidivism

A 92% reduction in recidivism among program graduates, creating safer communities for everyone.

Our Commitment to Your Investment

We believe a sponsorship is a partnership. We honor your investment by ensuring every student has a robust support system. We don't let anyone fall through the cracks. Here's how:

Real-Time Risk Detection

Our admin dashboard immediately flags students who are not engaging with course material. We don’t wait for them to fall behind; we see it the moment it happens.

Peer Mentor Outreach

The first line of support is a peer mentor—someone with shared experience who can offer encouragement and guidance in a relatable, non-judgmental way.

Direct Staff Intervention

If a student remains disengaged, a program facilitator will personally reach out to offer one-on-one support, schedule a counseling session, and create a personalized plan to get them back on track.

Our Path to 501(c)(3)

Building a sustainable future for our mission.

Catalyst Academy is operated under the umbrella of The Doctor Project Corporation, a registered non-profit organization. We are actively pursuing official 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status from the IRS.

While this process is underway, your sponsorship is a powerful social investment in the future of our communities. Once our 501(c)(3) status is approved, all prior donations within the eligibility window may become tax-deductible retroactively. We are committed to transparency and will keep all of our valued partners updated on our progress.
