Mary Frances Tharp, Executive Director of Boys Hope Girls Hope Denver, gave an informative program on the program which helps academically capable and motivated children-in-need meet their full potential.  They do this by providing value-centered, family-like support by mentoring and preparing students for success through college.  Boys Hope Girls Hope owns two homes, where 13 students live.  They partner with Aurora Central High School to provide college readiness and access support.  Last year one of the students attend RYLA through a scholarship for Highlands Ranch Rotary.
