Donate Now To Support The Hermosa Beach Open:
With Only 60% of the children in under served schools graduating from high school, DFK is teaching kids that they can be super heroes through education. A well educated student can be anything they want to be, a super doctor, a super lawyer, a super teacher. Please donate $10 to help us educate the next Superman or Wonder Woman. Watch the video below!
What is the issue, problem, or challenge?
The challenge is that only 70 percent of U.S. students graduate on time with a regular diploma and about 1.2 million students drop out annually. In the inner city, the numbers of students who drop out are about 60 percent. Dropouts are more than eight times as likely to be in jail as those with at least a high school diploma. D4K empowers kids in low-income communities by teaching them the importance of education and exercising. The children also learn life lessons such as team work, nutrition, discipline, and how to set and obtain goals.
