About IGB
The IGB (I Gotcha Back) Program, a 501(c)3, has been in operation since August 2007, utilizing community resources and volunteers to help guide many young people over the years. We have exposed young people to mentors, motivational speakers, classroom activities, cultural events, outdoor activities, culinary exploration, volunteer opportunities, recreational outings, and leadership symposiums. We partner with the YMCA to deliver our IGB MAP (Mentoring After school Program) for K-5th graders. We have established partnerships with www.Askmeno.com, financial institutions, and Mental Health providers to develop and implement our program offerings. These experiences and interactions have empowered many young people to Dream Higher, Expect Greater, and Accomplish More!
