Today, with 1 in every 5 children vulnerable to victimization, violence, and falling below academic proficiency, here is how we are directly influencing their future outcomes.

Investing in Education

In partnership with Children & Families First we've implemented an after-school program that builds on a comprehensive continuum of evidence based practices, incorporating practical application and technology.

Positive Youth Development

Maximizing the student social and academic growth, programs like Greater Kings & Queens creates a warm and welcoming environment that is conducive to the learning and developmental process.

Leadership

Spring of 2020 will begin the first cohort of The Anomaly project. A peer leadership and mentoring program designed specifically for minority males between their freshman and senior years of high-school.

Who We Are

Future Promises Foundation, Inc. was founded in 2017 to champion every child’s right to quality social, academic, and development programs directly influencing future achievement.

Through education, positive youth development and leadership, together, our board of directors, leadership team, and community partners are working to inspire youth empowerment and social change by developing programs that address indicators adversely affecting children and youth in the many less affluent communities of New Castle County, Delaware.

Where We Work

More than 24,000 African American and Hispanic children in the state of Delaware currently live in poverty lacking access to positive social development resources and quality academic programs which presents challenges that diminish their chances for successful adult lives. We’re here to change that.
