What We Do
NorthStar is home to north Omaha boys in 3rd-12th grade. Our goal is to build within them the tools and skills required to graduate on time, and to provide pathways to future education and employment. Our mission is to change young men’s lives through programming that supports, challenges, inspires, and instills a life rooted in education, self-discipline, and service to the community.
NorthStar after-school and summer activities include STEM programming, rock climbing, robotics, culinary classes, photography, college visits, basketball, lacrosse, canoeing, and more. Please join us in investing in the great young men at NorthStar!
