The organization aims to create a safe and supportive environment  where individuals can overcome challenges, build confidence, and develop the  skills needed to succeed in life.
Through tutoring, sports, counseling, and community engagement programs,  SURVIVING STRUGGLES FOUNDATION INC. strives to remove financial and social barriers that prevent families from accessing essential resources. The foundation is dedicated to fostering growth, unity, and opportunity while inspiring positive change and long-term success within the communities it serves.
The Surviving Struggles Foundation is a beacon of hope and empowerment for youth across the Bay Area, particularly in the vibrant and diverse Oakland community. Founded by Jabari Scott, our foundation is rooted in the belief that every young person deserves a fair chance to succeed, no matter their background or the challenges they face.
Our foundation was born out of a passion to address the systemic barriers and socio-economic challenges that many young people in our community encounter. We aim to bridge the gap between potential and opportunity by providing a comprehensive support network that nurtures, guides, and uplifts youth.

We envision a world where every young person has the opportunity to thrive, regardless of their circumstances. By focusing on holistic development and community engagement, we strive to create a supportive environment where youth can explore their potential, express their creativity, and embark on a path to a brighter future.
