empowering youth through education

Through innovative education programs and inspiring TGR Learning Labs, students from under-resourced communities receive access to education and opportunities to prepare for their future.

The newly renovated 35,000-square-foot campus provides access to technology, modern workspaces, classes and workshops in an inspiring environment. Through hands-on learning experiences, enrichment and support, students are empowered to discover their passions, build foundational skills and prepare for their futures.
