When We Grow Up

When We Grow Up 501(c)(3) is a nonprofit that empowers kids from underprivileged backgrounds dream bigger; providing access and exposure to high-paying career paths they otherwise may not have encountered. We partner with underfunded public schools across the country and send professionals from high-powered fields — like medicine, law, finance, and tech — directly into classrooms to connect with students. The most compelling talks are turned into short, engaging cartoons hosted on our digital platform that students and families around the world can again and again. Many of our speakers stay involved as informal mentors, helping students navigate futures they never knew existed. Our work is rooted in one belief: talent is universal — access is not.
