The Pearson Foundation

Dr. Christopher Bullin
The Pearson Foundation is doing awesome things in the community. The Pearson Foundation has been around for 20 years and is doing more and more each year to impact the lives of the children as well as adults in the community of Pearl. I am encouraged to continue to serve and donate to the Pearson Foundation because of the positive and impactful things we are doing to affect change in the lives of the people in the community.

I have known about the PEARSON Foundation for about 4 years now. The work that this organization does in its community is something to be proud of. Most (if not all) of the youth the the Foundation provides services for live in communities and households that don't provide them with the same opportunities that other youth get to experience. It's a special thing to know that there is an organization going to bat for these youth. I have been able to volunteer in a couple different capacities for the PEARSON Foundation and I am always encouraged by effort this organization makes to ensure that these students flourish!

The Pearson Foundation is motivated with the goal of helping children of our future generations. They offer a kind loving hand to students who struggle both in school and in their daily lives. I can say that this program is great for those in need and is able to spread positivity into our younger generation. So far while working in this program I really feel inspired to guide others in a positive and productive manner.

The Pearson Foundation is an amazing place to volunteer and Mr. Ward is a phenomenal leader. I enjoyed assisting the youth with their homework and talking about their relationship with Christ. The activities for the children are endless and their safety and care are the top priorities! The Pearson Foundation is a Christ centered community that will have a lasting impact on anyone who chooses to serve or participate.

I first learned about the PEARSON Foundation in undergrad for community service. Little did I know that meeting school requirements would turn into a lifetime commitment that was driven by passion and love for the people of the community and the organization. This service opportunity has kept me serving through education and I am now a full time elementary school teacher with the same mission and drive that I found in the PEARSON Foundation! I know my life was impacted by PEARSON as much as those that I got to serve.

I have volunteered with the PEARSON Foundation on several occasions. I love the impact this organization makes in the lives of the students it has the privilege of reaching. I have had several conversations with PEARSON program participants and many of them would tell you they have literally been "saved" by their participation in PEARSON programs. Many of them live in areas where opportunities are few and far between so having the presence of PEARSON in the community is a game-changer for many students. Keep of the good work PEARSON Foundation!

I started as a volunteer with The PEARSON Foundation when I was in junior high many many years ago. It has been a great beacon for the surrounding Pearson community. The outreach to the youth of all ages has been such a necessary support to enrichment. Between the in school mentoring and after school tutoring, PEARSON has been able to really help in the growth and knowledge of each of the youth it has had the opportunity to impact. As a board member as well as a volunteer, I see that PEARSON continues to still uphold its core values and be a positive impact for the youth of today.

I have been donating to the PEARSON Foundation monthly for years now. They do great work and even though I don't live in the area, I love following their social media and seeing how lives are being impacted. I would encourage anyone to learn about PEARSON and donate whatever they can! 

I first learned about the PEARSON Foundation through a friend who spent time mentoring young men in the public school through this ministry. His life had been positively impacted by connecting with the students, sharing his experiences and struggles, and acting as a role model. My friend spoke so well of the ministry that I had to get involved. I met with Jarvis Ward, the director, and asked about volunteer opportunities for the students at the school where I teach. We formed a partnership, and I've now had the pleasure of leading several groups to serve in practical ways at the ministry. I've seen first hand the power of a small group of dedicated individuals who care enough about their community to stand in the gap for the most vulnerable among us. That's the power at work at the PEARSON Foundation.

The PEARSON Foundation is a wonderful organization that I have had the pleasure of volunteering with for the past couple of years in various capacities. Having had the opportunity to interact with the students I can say they seem to truly enjoy the programs and projects offered. They are life-changing!
