At a handful of high schools across Baltimore, the Thread team enrolls a cohort of freshmen who are academically performing in the bottom 25% of their class.

Thread then connects each student to a group of adult volunteers who come from a wide range of backgrounds. Some are university students, others are young professionals, and there’s also retirees or empty nesters from the area.

Typically four volunteers are matched with one student; and together, they create a “Thread Family”. The Thread volunteers support the student in everyday life tasks, not just academics. They’ll help renovate a student’s apartment, attend sporting events, or drive them to school.

The key to running an organization like Thread? Put relationships at the forefront, Founder Sarah
Hemminger says.
