POSITION : Director of Major Gifts  REPORTS TO:  Chief Advancement Officer  POSITION TYPE : 12-month  LOCATION : Houston, Texas  THE CHALLENGE  Across the nation, only half of all students from low-income communities graduate from high school and only 10% earn a college degree. Even though 85% of our students are economically disadvantaged,  YES Prep  provides evidence that different outcomes are possible. Eighty-seven (87%) of YES Prep alumni matriculate to college within one year and alumni like  Eddie Zapata  are earning their college degrees at five times the rate of their peers with similar socioeconomic backgrounds. How do we do this? Each of YES Prep’s  18 campuses  serves 6th-12th graders like  Monique Bowie . Students typically enter YES Prep one or more grade levels behind, but quickly find themselves on a different life trajectory. This is a result of transformative relationships with teachers and leaders, and access to excellent educational opportunities.  As the first minority-majority city, Houston’s schools cannot keep up with demand from students like Eddie and Monique.
