Take Stock in Children Palm Beach County Since its inception in 1995, Take Stock in Children has positively impacted the lives of over 18,000 children statewide throughout 67 counties.

A College for Kids initiative, where Take Stock in Children PBC & TradeUp unite to provide scholarships, mentors, and resources for students in grades 6-12 in Palm Beach County. Over 7,500 mentors have volunteered with our program and in Palm Beach County alone we have awarded over $8 Million in scholarship funds. TSIC Palm Beach is proud to have graduated over 1,200 children considered ‘high-risk’ of drop-out, and currently has over 300 students enrolled and on track for success. Clearly addressing the high school drop-out crisis, and college attainment, Take Stock in Children continues to report an unparalleled high school graduation rate of 92% and a college enrollment rate of 81%. Students are identified in middle and high school and must sign a contract pledging to remain drug and crime free, meet with their mentor weekly and maintain a minimum grade point average of 2.3 or greater. Students fulfilling their contractual obligations receive a full tuition scholarship upon high school graduation. If you would like to become a mentor, please email us at [email protected].

November 6th. Stock the Cellars. One mission, limitless potential. 🍷

We are so excited to welcome our guests tomorrow for Stock the Cellars! We look forward to an evening of great w**e, generosity, and a shared commitment to the future of Palm Beach County students.

Thank you to our guests and sponsors for investing in our students and helping make their dreams of higher education a reality.

Because of your generosity, more students can have conversations with their families about the possibilities ahead, rather than the financial barriers that may stand in the way of college or trade school.

Stock the Cellars is more than an event. It’s an opportunity to raise critical funds for local students and invest in their futures.

From our College for Kids families, students, and team, thank you for believing in our students and making a lasting impact. We can’t wait to see you tomorrow!
