Who we are
“Future Matters'' is a new, developing nonprofit organization committed to the support, training, development, preparation and success of rising leaders within the South Bend community.
We do this by focusing on three areas of interest of both students and the local community: academic achievement/college readiness, career and technical training, and athletic excellence. Students will receive training in persistence, professionalism, college preparation, collegiate athletic opportunities, and technical skills. The young people of Future Matters will demonstrate the character, grit, and comprehensive strategic thinking necessary to thrive in a challenging world. The services provided by Future Matters will avail experiences and opportunities for students to become forward thinkers, and to consider all possibilities for their future.
“Future Matters” invites high school and middle school students to interact with members of our mentor team and receive orbital guidance according to their intended future plans.
