PAVE

Each PAVE students participates in a capstone project where they outline a personal strategic plan that will make them a more effective philanthropist. They analyze their individual strengths and determine how to best implement them in their communities through volunteerism, fundraising, community activism, nonprofit leadership, and social entrepreneurship.

Students propose a project that benefits an issue they have researched and connects with a personal interest they already have identified at the beginning of the course.

​

PAVE Graduates see major improvements in academic performance. Students who are failing their STAAR tests see a 30-50 percent point increase in test scores after going through PAVE (those not failing see an 8-12 percent point increase).

​

From classroom behavior to community involvement, PAVE graduates are the ones who will make tomorrow's impact happen today!
