How it all started…

In 2011, Co-Founders Tanell and Alvin, as Seniors at Western Michigan University, launched Endless Opportunities. Both were first-generation college students who learned how to navigate college life without a playbook and, through their trials and triumph,s wanted to create an organization to assist families on their journey through education. In September 2011, they hosted their very first Back to School Celebration, which brought free haircuts, school supplies, and confidence to families in West Michigan. Since then, the organization has developed mentoring programs for Middle and High Schoolers, partnerships with local schools, and served thousands of families in West Michigan.
