Why Future Centers?
Lynchburg Beacon of Hope is working in partnership with the GO Virginia Council (Region 2) to produce a playbook for Future Center development. The primary goal of Future Centers is to empower our students to remove the barriers preventing them from pursuing what’s next. Every student is different with unique gifts. At Beacon of Hope, we’ve built our Future Centers to encourage Lynchburg high schoolers to chase their dreams and leverage their talents–and now, we’re sharing how you can do the same in your community.
