Get to know us
We measure our success not just by individual achievements, but by the ripple effects our youth create—whether it’s revitalizing their neighborhoods, inspiring peers, or driving systemic change. Because when we invest in young people today, we’re not just changing their lives; we’re building a stronger, more equitable tomorrow for everyone.
At NINE, we don’t just believe in potential. We activate it.
Our Mission
At NINE, we believe that every young person is born with brilliance, resilience, and the power to shape the future—but not everyone gets the opportunity to unlock it. Our mission is to change that.
We exist to empower the next generation of leaders, dreamers, and change-makers by providing them with the mentorship, tools, and real-world experiences they need to thrive. Through intentional relationships, innovative programs, and deep community collaboration, we don’t just prepare youth for success—we help them redefine what success means.
