TESTIMONIALS
What’s Being Said
I have had the pleasure of knowing Rev. David Jefferson Jr for over 10 years. His mentoring and support helped me to attend Morehouse College and now I'm a graduate student at Georgetown University. His methods work!
Stephen Fisher
As an immigrant from Haiti, it was a challenge transitioning to America's educational system. Dr. Jefferson showed me how to apply my knowledge and be the best student I could be. Now I serve in the military and am currently finishing up my undergraduate degree.
Olriche Tupusaint
Balancing your education and athletics can be tough. Mr. Jefferson showed me that it can be done. After winning the State Championship, I attended Temple University. And I'm still being mentored by Mr. Jefferson today!
