HigherLearningNetwork.org is a remarkable platform that stands as a beacon of hope and opportunity for underserved communities. As I delved into its offerings, I was truly impressed by the depth and breadth of resources it provides, catering to individuals from all walks of life who are striving to overcome the challenges of limited access to education, opportunities, and information.

One of the most striking aspects of HigherLearningNetwork.org is its commitment to bridging the information gap for underserved communities, particularly in the context of migration. The website serves as an invaluable resource hub, offering the latest news and updates that affect these communities. In a world where migration issues are constantly evolving, HigherLearningNetwork.org ensures that its users stay informed and empowered with knowledge to make informed decisions and navigate the often complex landscape of migration.

What truly sets HigherLearningNetwork.org apart is its dedication to nurturing the potential of teenagers within underserved communities. The platform offers a diverse array of opportunities for young individuals to learn, grow, and develop new skills. From educational resources and career guidance to artistic showcases and talent development programs, this website is a nurturing ground for the future leaders of underserved communities.

HLN is one of the most giving organizations I have worked with. They work with various organizations to help with community, educational and economic issues that arise in those communities.

September 2020. I met with her through a marketplace and after that Zelda is my everyday inspiration. Her every show and every speech attract me most. Me and my family loves her a lot. Her way of motivation is excellent.

Higher Learning Network is a great organization. Every month I saw the Virtual Global Teen Talent Contest which is very much attractive and interesting as well. Actually the way Zelda talks there its really awesome. "Higher Learning Network's mission is to empower and teach urban youth and adults how to develop their own natural gifts, talents and abilities: with a focus on life skills, job training and entrepreneurial skills." And I love the statement.

Zelda Robinson and her team at Higher Learning Network are among the most professional, knowledgeable communicators and community advocates one could hope for in a Chicago broadcasting arena devoid of venues showcasing the resources, hidden gems and need-to-knows, along with the ignored news, leaders and positive stories of Chicago's neighborhoods. My experience sharing my new book, "Escape From Nigeria: A Memoir of Faith, Love and War" on her show was enriching and stimulating, her personal insight quite educational. Her team is top-notch, rivaling any crew in any Chicago newsroom! I vigorously recommend you get to know this nonprofit truly doing good for the 'hood, and for all Chicagoland! — Maudlyne Ihejirika

I attended fundraisers for students,hosted events and shows. I spent time meeting students and others that wanted to donate their time and profession with students and the general public I trained students in my field of expertise. This is a vital organization that is needed in the community.

I volunteered this past winter with the youth media class where the kids produced a tv show for their friends, and it was great! I've only volunteered with this organization once, but it was such a good experience, I forgot I was even working. See these kids faces light up was really heart warming!

Higher Learning Network has been a staunch supporter of our mission to save hundreds of youth in the Roseland community. Our annual event "Feed A Teen" Thanksgiving Day Dinner feeds of hundreds of teenagers and their families each year, and High Learning Network is there every year to help make it a success. Higher Learning Network has also donated valuable services to Kids Off The Block such as videos of the event, broadcasting our event for eight straight weeks, all pro bono. We are so grateful to Ms. Zelda Robinson and Tony Hughes to their unwaivering support.

As a working professional I undertand the importance of allowing today's youth see someone who looks like them, come from the same neighborhoods they came from. I show up to show them that there are people they don't know in this world, that care about them. It's been more rewarding to me than I ever thought. I thought I was attending events to share my expertise, but I learned so much more than I can ever give back to them in return. What a blessing to be a part of this organization's volunteer staff!

I met Zelda Robinson some 12 years ago and I can say that she is not only a dynamic public speaker,radio host, and author, but she is also someone who cares deeply about people. The Higher Learning Network does marvelous work, offering a little bit of everything for most everyone. If you, or someone you know is in need of a grant, directions on getting published, or a multiplicity of other needs, this is the place to go! This woman has not only got it together, she has helped countless others do the same. Sincerely, (uncle) Bob Starshak

Higher learning is important because without knowledge you limit yourself. The world continues to move and you have to move with the world. I am a freelance writer. I did not know there were grants out there for writers. I found this out because of the Higher Learning Network. I have also forwarded this along to my friends. This is truly the gift that continues to give. Thank you

I believe in the work the Higher Learning Network does teaching community residents not only how to overcome financial challenges, but offering hope in hopeless situations. I know the work is crucial because people come and thank us so much after a seminar is over! I've been volunteering for the last couple of years and I will do it as long as the organization needs me. I see the need in the community, and I see the lightbulbs go off in their heads when they see hope where there was none. This volunteerism is so much needed and it brings such a joy to me to be able to help someone else. I feel I am helping make a difference.
