Trampoline is proud to connect with Amanda Magee's history in the Yakima Valley as we begin work on the University of Washington's GEAR UP program Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Programs.  GEAR UP is part of a national effort to assist low income families and position their children for success in higher education. 

The new program RISE UP Rural Initiative in STEM Education and Undergraduate Preparation is part of a U.S. Department of Education federal grant which will operate in 13 school districts in the Yakima, Skagit and Klickitat Valleys and serve 4,955 students over the net 7 years. The counties participating in the program have some of the highest populations of Hispanic, Native American and/or limited English-speaking students in all of Washington State, with poverty rates of 81.2%. 

The team at trampoline is eager to deliver future-enhancing resources to young people and their families in Washington State.
