Igniting Potential
Igniting Potential is our newest philanthropy that launched in 2024. This program provides financial and hands-on support to San Clemente High School AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) students. AVID is for all students with a priority to serve those determined to be ‘in the middle,’ often low income/first generation college bound, or without other supports. AVID at San Clemente serves over 10% of the student population with a goal of increasing college acceptances, scholarship money, and helping students create a plan for their post-secondary years. More info about the CUSD AVID program.
The annual impact of this program is $18K.
