TGNCK-Columbia
The seed that grew into TGNCK was planted in Columbia, SC. Efforts to pour into our Founder’s hometown and alma mater will remain at the forefront of all we do. Initiatives are contingent upon Columbia-based resources.
TERI’S STAR PERFORMERS
Each year, Richland 1 School District students will receive a SMART television for their academic performance as a direct result of our Founder’s mother, Ms. Teri.
TRENDS TO TRANSITION
While food insecurity does exist, we have learned that accessibility to essential hygiene items has a higher priority than food. Access to food is easier than access to deodorant, bar soap, toothpaste, toothbrush, socks, chapstick, and feminine hygiene items. This programs is open to:
Survivors of Domestic Violence
Unsheltered Homeless
Families in Transition
EXCELLENCE THROUGH EXPOSURE
Our goal is to provide small-group exposure to economically disadvantaged children interested in a career within the S.T.E.M. field. This program provides representation (Scientists, IT, Architects, and Mathematicians who look like them), social skills, and hands-on S.T.E.M.-based activities, field trips and interviews with community leaders.
