GO is deeply committed to fostering a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion, ensuring that all individuals feel valued, respected, and supported. We aim to create a true sanctuary within our organization where every student has the opportunity to thrive.
GO believes in advancing the principles of belonging, respect, empathy, and justice. We acknowledge that racism, prejudice, and preconception include not only overt and covert discrimination but also social and institutional power structures that perpetuate systems of inequity. We are committed to recognizing and opposing all forms of oppression wherever they exist, focusing on fostering an environment where all identities are embraced and protected.
To uphold our anti-racist and inclusive values, GO recognizes the importance of ongoing reflection, education, and communication. This commitment requires us to identify and counteract implicit bias, systemic disadvantages and prejudice faced by marginalized communities, and other forms of inequity. We believe listening to and learning from students, caregivers, educators, and the broader community is essential to providing impactful and effective tutoring and mentorship services.
GO celebrates and respects differences, recognizing that diversity strengthens the fabric of our community. We believe everyone deserves equal opportunities to succeed, regardless of race, gender identity, sexual orientation, or cultural background. Our commitment to anti-racism and inclusion aligns directly with our principles and goals, affirming our identity as an organization dedicated to justice, equity, and meaningful change. Through this commitment, we strive to create a brighter, more equitable future for every student we serve.
