How HopSkipDrive Makes a Difference

“Transportation creates stability, and it’s so critical to program success…. We have kids coming on the bus to South L.A. We love to see that motivation and drive, but why should we expect these young people to have to do all of that and create another barrier for them?”

Better Youth

—Syd Stewart, Founder and CEO

“There’s not even a price tag that can be put on what HopSkipDrive does. It’s not right when a kid has to spend all morning in court doing something a child should not have to be doing — testifying in open court about something that happened privately in their family — and then the only thing that kid is thinking about the whole time is, ‘How am I going to get back to school?’”

Children’s Law Center of California

—Alexandra Lohman, Staff Attorney

“Foster youth face so many barriers to accessing academic enrichment programs that non-foster youth don’t, including limited family support and a lack of available resources. One of the hardest things is getting the scholars in the door…. Being able to provide transportation and take that hurdle out of the equation really makes a huge difference for us.”

First Star
