Why LaunchNW?

Research shows that post-high school education and workforce training create prosperity powerful enough to:

  • Boost economies

  • Bolster communities

  • Break cycles of poverty

But in our region, less than half of high school graduates pursue post-high school education or workforce training. If we want to create a healthy community of fulfilled and engaged adults, we must start at the beginning. LaunchNW brings our region together to invest in comprehensive supports – from birth to career attainment – that spark lasting community vitality.

Securing student futures.

Through the generosity of donors, LaunchNW’s vision is becoming reality. Hundreds of students are achieving their college and career goals with support from the Promise Scholarship. Thousands more are engaging with mentorship, after-school activities, and family supports offered by our community partners. To keep the momentum and our commitments to today’s students, we must endow this initiative forever.
