“Too many students, particularly low-income students and those whose parents did not go to college, have the dream of going to college, but do not have access to the support and resources to get them there. AVID is their support. Thank you for helping change the odds of success for these youth.”

2005 Grant History

Tomorrow's Aeronautical Museum

On December 23 in Compton, California, Spider Loc visited a nonprofit that he knows well, the Tomorrow's Aeronautical Museum. The Museum's main purpose is to make aviation accessible to children who lack the access and opportunity to experience such. One hundred children were treated to iPod Shuffles and a party. Spider also presented director Robin Petgrave with a check for $25,000 to support Positive Vibrations, their youth mentoring program.
