Giving Tuesday isn’t just about giving—it’s about impact that lasts.
At Escape the Shape, we prepare high school boys from underrepresented communities in the D.C. area to lead with confidence, think globally, and give back locally. Our six-month program blends mentorship, academic enrichment, leadership workshops, and a life-changing international service-learning trip.
For many of our scholars, this is their first time leaving the country—or even owning a passport. Through these experiences, they discover their power, purpose, and potential to change the world.
This Giving Tuesday, your donation will:
Expand our program to include more students
Increase college scholarship funds for graduating seniors
Purchase first-time passports for our next cohort
Your generosity today helps break barriers and build bridges—turning local students into global citizens.
💙 Donate now to help our scholars escape limits, embrace leadership, and shape their future.
"Escape the Shape has given my son access to people and place that I could have never imagined. This program has made him a world traveler, learning new languages, meeting new people and eating new foods. It has impacted not only his life but the people around him. " - Phillicia (parent)
