At Global Charity Foundation (GCF), our mission is to empower students through education, mentorship, and resources that open doors to opportunity. Despite the many challenges students face, including the recent global pandemic, our programs have consistently delivered results—demonstrating strong high school graduation success rates and positive post-graduation pathways.
For the past three consecutive years, our high school graduation success rates have remained between 88% and 92%, significantly outperforming local averages. More than 60% of GCF graduates have gone on to pursue a college education—a powerful testament to the effectiveness of our student-centered programs.
In May 2021, amid the ongoing challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, 85% of our seniors graduated from high school—compared to just 55% of their peers at the same school. Despite the obstacles, these students pursued a variety of successful post-graduation paths:
40% enrolled at the College of Southern Nevada (CSN)
10% entered trade school to become dental hygienists
10% joined the military
40% entered the workforce
This cohort demonstrated resilience and determination, achieving success against the odds.
In May 2022, our graduation success grew even stronger. A remarkable 92% of GCF scholars graduated from high school, with many maintaining GPAs between 3.5 and 3.7. Their post-graduation choices highlight the well-rounded support GCF provides:
52% pursued college degrees
19% enrolled in trade schools
22% entered the workforce
7% joined the military
These outcomes reflect our focus on personalized pathways that align with each student’s strengths and aspirations.
One of our standout initiatives—the Dual Credit Program—continues to deliver exceptional results. Every student enrolled in this program has successfully graduated from high school. This program allows students to earn college credits while still in high school, helping them get a head start on their academic and career goals.
Our consistent high school graduation success rates prove what’s possible when students are given access to academic support, caring mentors, and real-world opportunities. Whether they choose higher education, skilled trades, or professional work, we are proud to walk alongside our students as they take the next step.
Support from donors, sponsors, and volunteers allows us to continue expanding our programs and reaching more students across Las Vegas. Your involvement helps make graduation—and long-term success—a reality for every student we serve.
