Kellogg PEAK Initiative
Our mission is to bring out the limitless potential in young leaders through extraordinary experiences and nurturing relationships. PEAK partners with Milwaukee-area schools and serves hundreds of students through summer camp experiences, after-school, school-day and weekend programming. In most cases, youth attend programming with 100% of their participation costs covered by funds raised by PEAK. Instead of a financial obligation, participants commit to staying engaged with the organization and giving back to their community. PEAK hopes all youth in its programs are engaged in 10 weeks of high-quality summer programming and activities that nurture their development while providing intentional and thoughtful programming during the academic year. A main goal of the organization is to offer youth comprehensive programming that builds leadership-focused, social and emotional learning skills, spanning into adulthood. PEAK hopes its work will become recognized as a national best-practice model for supporting youth in realizing their leadership potential and applying their skills and influence in their workplaces and communities.
