Project Northstar is a non-profit organization
whose fundamental mission is to help children who are homeless or disadvantaged overcome barriers to a quality education. Partnering with parents, educators, donors and diverse volunteers, we provide one-on-one tutoring, mentoring and enrichment activities to students in grades 1-12 to help pave the way to success in school and life. We strive to be a beacon – a north star – by which children can find their way to a better, brighter future.

What's New?

Project Northstar is in the Process of Strategic Planning!

And you can help! We encourage our past and present volunteers to provide us with feedback by filling out this form: Strategic Plan Survey.
