REACH for the Stars
The Foundation's REACH for the Stars program is a year-round program that provides at-risk youth with unique, life-changing opportunities. The REACH Foundation will sponsor a group of youth for an entire year. These teens will be encouraged to achieve goals such as behaving in school, school attendance, helping out around the house and living a healthy life.

REACH for the Stars will fund the necessary amount to enroll these youth in Aspen Youth Experience. In addition, children will be rewarded with a special outing with Karl Mecklenburg. This outing will be outdoors-related and may involve a nature hike, rafting or ski trip, etc.

REACH for a Book
REACH for a Book is a program that runs throughout the school year. Each child is encouraged to read at least five hours each week outside of the classroom. The program is designed to encourage children to develop a habit of reading. Children will be rewarded for reaching various goals along the way. Prizes include school supplies and a special field trip with Karl.

General Assistance
In addition to providing the interactive programs above, the Foundation will provide funds for various other programs focusing on education and parent child bonding opportunities.
