This is a unique, one-of-a-kind

the cycle of poverty. ROAR stands for 'Reach Out and Rise', which is
what we hope our first batch of scholars will do when given a safe,
positive living space and an intensive enrichment program. Our goal is
for them to earn a degree while becoming outstanding, skillful and
socially-conscious members of society.
