Liberators, Inc.

Who Are We?

Liberators, Inc. was founded in 2006 in response to a need to liberate the thinking of inner-city youth and their families - to free them from the insecurities that come from academic and economic impoverishment. We seek to promote academic empowerment, social responsibility, and economic partnerships.  Our motto is "Liberating Minds One at a Time."

Liberators, Inc. provides independent contractors working in various capacities to help students prepare for their future goals.  We equip students with the skills and focus, including entrepreneurial thinking, to help them make a unique contribution to society while achieving personal fulfillment. 

We equip parents/guardians with knowledge and resources to assist schools in educating their children.

What We Do

The primary goal of this organization is to promote economic empowerment and social responsibility in urban youth.  We collaborate with teachers of inner city students to develop and implement instructional units, targeting the required content standards or objectives while teaching students about the world of money and business. 

Our purpose is to focus students on investing in themselves and their communities as well as in financial markets. 

We also provide college prep and SAT/ACT tutoring in English language arts and math.

Liberators, Inc. provides services to schools in urban communities to assist teachers in developing standards-based instructional units which embed financial concepts. 

The culminating project is a personal plan that each student will develop to provide a roadmap for his/her success. The project is student-centered as it requires students to identify their own interests and natural abilities that can be developed over time and lead to a promising career.

 Anthony Anderson, one of the first participants in our program, wrote in a letter to us, "You helped me be somebody, and I thank you....I know what I am going to be in life, more than just a black man, more than just a gangster in South Central LA... You helped me know I can do anything in my life if I try and try  hard." After graduating from high school, Anthony attended LA Trade Technical College and now works in construction management.
