Our mission is to promote community empowerment by increasing access to higher education for low income youth and young adults by impacting the school graduation, drop-out and college going rates.

Description:
PACT, Inc. is a private, non-profit California Corporation, which has provided services to the San Francisco Bay Area since 1963. The visionary founders, Mr. Everett Brandon and Dr. Henry Lucas, saw the wisdom of creating a structure for many different programs in response to the needs of the African American and other underrepresented groups in education, business and employment. PACT, Inc. began to operate in 1964 and in 1965, began to operate its first Educational Talent Search Project which was funded by the U.S. Department of Education. The program has expanded and continues to presently.
