Who we are:
A.K.T. is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to uplifting the community. We believe that knowledge is the key to achieving any dream. We provide guidance in the form of mentorship to those navigating the winding road of life. We aid young adults who are in need of assistance pursuing higher education. Our goals are as diverse as our community. We welcome anyone seeking help and offer our services to them.
The Core Tenets of A.K.T.
Communication
A.K.T. looks at communication as being an essential tool in propelling oneself to incredible heights and a necessary device to build sustainable relationships. We want our participants to have the ability to operate in a variety of communication scenarios and be successful in diverse settings. We look to develop individuals who are adept at cultivating relationships rooted in authenticity and genuine interest in constructing everlasting relationships and ultimately catapulting the individual to new pinnacles.
Leadership
An A.K.T. leader is the epitome of character, productivity, and effectiveness. They boldly stand apart from the norm, embodying innovation and creativity. These pioneers challenge the status quo, forging a path to a "new normal." In the realm of A.K.T., they are architects of change and progress.
Discipline
Without a level of dedication and persistence, the A.K.T. entity cannot harness the necessary energy to cultivate communal leaders. The A.K.T. curriculum and infrastructure is dependent on unlocking a level of required dedication and persistence to create entrepreneur and leadership spaces and operate outside of the societal box that has been prescribed.
Perseverance
At the heart of each A.K.T. member there is an engine that never ceases to churn no matter how difficult the feat may be. As our members step out into the world and aim to break barriers, they will often face obstacles experienced by few or in some cases none other themselves. We want our participants to always remain persistence in what they achieve despite difficulty or delay in achieving success.
Resilience
Life continues a myriad of ups and downs. As an A.K.T. member you must be able to take advantage of the highs and remain strong through the lows. Members need to have a mental toughness to ensure sound decision making as they step into their community leadership roles.
