On GivingTuesday, people around the world come together to support causes that make a difference. This global day of giving is a chance to empower youth, strengthen communities, and create lasting change. Lead The Way is proud to participate in this movement and invites you to join us in transforming lives.
Giving Tuesday is more than a fundraiser—it’s an opportunity to invest in the futures of young people who will shape tomorrow. Together, we can ensure every student has the tools they need to succeed.

A Story of Impact
Last year, 17-year-old Jasmine joined our summer employment program, gaining skills that helped her secure a part-time job while pursuing her dream of becoming an engineer. “Lead The Way gave me the confidence and tools I needed to succeed,” Jasmine shared. Your donation makes stories like hers possible.
