The Pinball Foundation empowers youth through education by bringing youth from the margins to the mainstream.
About us
The Pinball Clemons Foundation provides marginalized youth with educational resources and options to integrate into the mainstream of society. We want to ensure all youth are reading at grade level and graduating from high school ready for post-secondary education. With the implementation of a customized mentorship program and financial support, we are removing the barriers that often hinder success. The ultimate goal is not a diploma or degree – we want to see youth successfully enter the workforce, gainfully employed in careers they desire. Our Margins to Mainstream Partnership model is working to change the narrative for marginalized youth.

As Tenisha Noel, one of our inspiring graduates, shared: "Through the Pinball Foundation, I discovered not just how to achieve success, but how to move from success to significance. Their guidance and support taught me the power of giving back and using my accomplishments to uplift others, creating a ripple effect of positive change." This holiday season, we invite you to continue fueling this ripple effect. Your generous donation helps ensure that even more students can step into the light of opportunity and make a lasting impact on their future! Donate today at https://lnkd.in/eM6ZPDxR. 🌟💙

On Thursday, The Pinball Foundation and the Alpay Family celebrated Christmas at Youth Without Shelter! The evening started with a delicious meal prepared by the Pinball Foundation team. It was followed by our yearly Secret Santa sponsored by the Alpay Family and our lovely youth development fund donors. The gifts included headphones, speakers, beauty products, tablets, gift cards, ear buds, and many more! Each youth had the opportunity to pick a gift and received a winter essentials gift bag. Thank you so much to the Alpay Family and supporters of our youth development fund for making our youth feel loved and celebrated this holiday season! It's because of your kindness and generosity, we're able to share the joy of the holidays together! 💙

With your support, our Careers Team has been able to provide vital resources for students preparing for the workforce. Our students benefit from a range of invaluable sessions designed to set them up for success, including: resume building workshops, interview prep sessions, mentorship opportunities, fireside chats and networking events, and job placement support. "The Pinball Foundation has made a tremendous impact on my life as a student and now as an alumnus. They have connected me with incredible mentors that have guided me towards new and unique career opportunities. These groups have allowed me to network with other like-minded alumni and workplace professionals, thus creating connections, unforgettable experiences, and many special memories." - Bianca Jones Help us fund more students like Bianca by making a donation.
