Affiliate members are agencies who have formed an association with Pathways to Excellence based upon a mutuality of goals and commitments. The essence of the commitment is to work together to accomplish these shared goals which include education, physical conditioning, and other similar endeavors which provide opportunities to children to better their lives and become productive members of Society.
Voluntary Member
Voluntary members include any person or organization who want to help accomplish the goals of Pathways to Excellence or any affiliate member. Pathways to Excellence and affiliate members need assistance to accomplish the goals of their respective organizations. Mentoring, program promotion, and general support are always needed.
Sponsorships
There are a significant number of world and national level athletes on the affiliate members who need sponsorships. These individuals range from their early teens to young adults, and have demonstrated a work ethic and achievements which have placed them among the national and world elite in their sport. Sponsorships are essential for these athletes to meet training, travel and competition expenses.
Just as important, are sponsorships for children who desperately need the structure and value systems that affiliate members provide, but whose economic reality makes that impossible. Programs such as those provided by affiliate members change lives and create productive members of society. All sponsorships are connected directly to athletes and participants targeted by sponsors.
Investment
During the past twenty-five years, a wide range of products have been produced which have been validated and endorsed at levels which insure the quality of the systems and programs developed. The market for these materials is extremely large, particularly as mainstream public schools experience dramatic increases in disruptive behaviors and gang activities.
In addition to seeking support for these materials, there are a number of projects which are ongoing which provide an opportunity for investment and development. Some of these are listed below.
