Community Stakeholder Survey
As a vision-focused organization, we aim to expand our programs to reach even more underserved unchurched teens in the Fremont area and beyond in the coming year.
The youth we serve are creative, talented, caring, and energetic. They just need to know that people care about them, they need to be exposed to the hope and healing found in the Bible, and they need to hear the truth that they were created on purpose for a purpose making them capable of far more than they realize.
We have created a donor and community stakeholder survey. We appreciate your insight as a community as we look forward to see how God can use Aspire to change the trajectory of the youth we’re serving. Please consider taking a few minutes to provide us with your feedback as we look forward to how God’s eternal kingdom can be impacted by our work.

Statement Regarding Recent Media Footage
A Message to Our Community
Some members of our community have reached out after seeing the Aspire For Greatness van appear in recent media coverage of an incident at Fremont High School this afternoon, that did not involve our organization or our programming.
To provide clarification to the community: Aspire For Greatness was not involved in the incident referenced in the news coverage.
Our branded van was visible due to transportation timing of Aspire being at Fremont High School to pick up students to transport them to our after-school program. Aspire was not connected to the situation at the school.
To remove barriers to participants we provide transportation from JCAC, the middle school, and the high school to our program. The timing of our van being at the high school was simply to pick students up once school got out. Aspire was not part of the high school students' walk out or demonstrations that happened.
The safety, well-being, and positive development of young people is at the heart of everything we do. We take that responsibility seriously and are committed to operating with integrity, transparency, and care in our community.
We are grateful for the trust placed in us by families, partners, and supporters, and we remain focused on providing safe, enriching, and hope-filled opportunities for the youth we serve.
If you have questions, we welcome you to reach out to us directly.
New Staff Announced
Aspire is excited to welcome Kaley Weber back to Aspire! Kaley will be serving as the Program Coordinator for our Leadership & Workforce Development Program. This includes the EC2 program that allows Aspire to hire and train 16-21 year olds to facilitate STEM activities with younger youth. Thanks to great community partnerships with Fremont Public Schools and the Fremont Family YMCA the youth are able to provide STEM activities to younger youth creating opportunities for younger youth to learn from near-peers and the older youth to gain valuable work experience. Kaley's background in Elementary Education (and her character and personality) make her a great fit for this position!
Aspire is also excited to welcome Holly Porter to our team as the Program Director, a position that has not been filled for several years due to lack of funding. In addition to already knowing about Aspire from previously volunteering at Aspire, Holly brings a wealth of knowledge in the field of substance use counseling as well as lived experience. Holly is the perfect person for this role to engage with the youth we are serving and oversee the curriculum in our program to provide the most value to the youth we serve.
We are excited to see the impact both these amazing woman will have on the youth we serve at Aspire For Greatness!
Help us build pathways to purpose!
Aspire For Greatness is seeking financial supporters, business partners, mentors, and community champions to help bring this vision to life. Your investment can help create meaningful employment opportunities for young people while building a healthier, more connected community.
