What we do & how we started

WHO WE ARE

We started as a grassroots movement helping underrepresented students in America overcome the hurdles of obtaining their graduate degree.

Over the years, the students we serve has expanded. We have watched our students develop in their purpose, in their careers, and in their spiritual lives. We are grateful to witness it all over the past twenty years.

And now, here we are, ready for the next chapter in this adventure. We hope you will join us as this story continues to unfold.

Our story is still being written.

MRS. KEISHA DAWN SOWERS, M.P.A.

"HELLO" FROM OUR FOUNDER

If you are new to our mission, welcome!

We are grateful for every person that has supported our educational projects over the past twenty years.

One of our 5 Values is Connection.

Everyone has a story, and we want to listen to your story.

What have you overcome?

What are you facing now?

The next generation needs your wisdom.

We invite you to leave a legacy by partnering with us.

Your presence is needed.

You will see the impact your generosity will make on at least one student over the years to come.

Meet Saad

GradPrep Rotational Intern Graduate

In 2025, Saad was selected into GradPrep’s 3 month Rotational Internship program.

Becoming part of our story can be challenging yet fulfilling. Having to overcome travel obstacles at times in her region, Saad exemplified our value of perseverance. She found great passion using her degree to help children and was driven by her life purpose.

For the capstone of the internship rotation, every intern must select a regional community service initiative. Saad chose Home and Street Kids Welfare Initiative (HSKi) in Nigeria.

“For community outreach, I’m most interested in supporting the Home and Street Kids Welfare Initiative because street children face some of the toughest realities, from homelessness and hunger to abuse, preventable diseases, and lack of access to education.

What I admire most is how the initiative gives these kids real alternatives, through rehabilitation, learning opportunities, and creative outlets, helping them build a brighter future.” -Saad

The kids loved the GradPrep classes she designed and Saad was able to figure out next steps in her faith and career journey.

GradPrep would like to thank both HSKi and Saad for answering the call and becoming part of our story.

We know God has a bright future for these children.
