Chalet D’Espoir is the Global Leadership Retreat space and a retreat/gathering space for teams, families and community. Today, we need your help! The hurricanes have damaged Chalet D’Espoir, and we need you to help repair and build for future success and dreams!

Our girls are raising money to make the Global Leadership Retreat affordable.

So, we are asking you:

We want to make your volunteer experience as much fun as possible, so we hope that some of you can use this as a volunteer vacation of sorts. Come to Florida with family and friends, volunteer for a day or two and then enjoy the space or maybe even go to the nearby theme parks (Lots to choose from- LEGOLAND, Universal Studios, SeaWorld and of Course Disney World.)

So, if you can’t come and help, please donate to provide what’s needed and/or connect us with resources to get this project ready.

Those who can and will volunteer please complete this form, we will connect with you regarding lodging, transportation etc.

About us and the need:

Higher Learning U is a nonprofit based in Colorado with roots that run from Florida to Uganda and is the origin of The African American Young Ladies Summit Program (AAYLS.) We are dedicated to empowerment through leadership development, academic excellence, and personal growth. Leadership and safety are imperative to personal development; The Global Leadership Retreat is one of the spaces where we grow and nurture these skills & values. The girls spend 5 days learning, developing, and practicing skills that they then use in leading the Sista 2 Sista Day of Mentoring Conference, yes, their own conference!

Follow this link for more details about us and the project.

All who volunteer can bring your family, team or organization back to enjoy the space for a discounted rated once it is completed.

Help us make a difference! We are raising money to attend the AAYLS Global Leadership Retreat. We will be engaging in all types of learning that we will bring back to our community and apply right away as a leader at the Sista 2 Sista Mentoring Day (Peer to Peer mentoring) on March 7th. Any donation makes an impact. Certain donation levels come with a "Thank You" gift. Gifts can be picked up at the Sista 2 Sista event on March 7th or at the Showcase on April 26th. Thanks in advance for your contribution to our growth and leadership, your support means a lot to us.
