College means opportunity. It means choice in your career. It means economic mobility. Yet, it's out of reach for the folks who benefit from it most. If you haven't earned you degree by 24, chances are you won't get it later. The bills pile up, and going back to school the old-fashioned way becomes impossible.

This matters because most jobs in Austin require a Bachelor's degree, but 59% of Austin's workforce doesn't have one (E3 Alliance). This is because students who work and attend college part-time have just a 16% chance of graduating.

That's where we come in.

At PelotonU, we're producing five times the results. Over the past four years, we developed a college pathway that provides working students the flexibility and support they need to actually finish college. 

Now we're ready to grow. We're raising $300,000 the same way a startup raises an angel round. It's called venture philanthropy and will provide the runway for PelotonU to transition from a charity to self-sustaining social enterprise.

We need your contribution - and just as important, your wisdom - as we start a new phase of growth. Come hear what we've learned, have the first look at our revenue model, and consider a contribution towards the best pathway for working adults to earn their degree in Austin.
