The challenges facing students and families in our community are not isolated—they are systemic.
-
Students are gaining knowledge, but often lack direction, responsibility, and the ability to apply what they learn.
-
Critical supports like nutrition, mentorship, and life skills development are often fragmented or missing entirely.
-
Learning is frequently disconnected from real life, leaving students unprepared to engage with the world around them.
-
Families carry increasing pressure without consistent, reinforcing support systems.
Left unaddressed, these gaps compound.
-
Students drift.
-
Families strain.
-
Long-term strength of the city is impacted.
Walk the city. Meet the students. See what your investment changes.

You do not have to stand on the sidelines.
At Charis Academy, students are not waiting to make an impact—your investment helps them serve, build, and contribute now.
Join us to partner with families to form students who are grounded in faith, strong in character, and prepared for real life—not just graduation.
Through a city-as-campus model and a comprehensive support system, students do not just learn—they collaborate, serve, build, and grow into capable young men and women of purpose, future-ready to transform their city.
When you give, you do more than fund a school. You help shape lives and strengthen the future of an entire community.


You don’t just support a student—you activate everything around them.
A student gains access to Charis who otherwise wouldn’t—changing what’s possible from day one.
Meals, weekend food support, and family engagement reduce pressure and create consistency where it matters most.
Students don’t just learn—they practice. Communication, financial literacy, digital responsibility, and ownership show up in how they think and act.
Through your investment, students step into real environments—serving, building, and contributing across Hazleton.
Faith, academics, mentorship, nutrition, and real-world experience work together— reinforcing growth from every angle.
