Acceler8 partners with the Stanley W. Ekstrom Foundation

We would like to thank the Stanley W. Ekstrom Foundation for their contribution to the Acceler8 Education Program. Acceler8 was awarded the $50,000 grant through Stanley W. Ekstrom Foundation and we are sincerely grateful for their support, for recognizing the unique ways of getting our youth involved in different fields that will ultimately benefit the path towards their own future success, through the assistance of the Acceler8 Program. Their contribution will also help build on classroom capacity, equipment support and additional resources that will benefit the training, experience, and skillset for our future leaders.Acceler8 Education is a non-profit automotive afterschool program that is funded entirely through donations, grants and fundraising events. Acceler8 encourages youth to stay in school and work towards graduating by building the confidence, motivation and skillset they need in order to discover their strengths and capabilities so that they can plan for their future success. All donations are tax-deductible.Our mission is to teach the skills of today, to build the leaders of tomorrow. We believe that the transition from teenage to adulthood is a pivotal moment in one’s life, and if we can reach that age bracket and help them develop a brighter outlook in their future endeavors, it can lead to a positive turning point to want to work towards their future goals.
