Volunteering and Community Engagement

Building up the community happens when there is collaboration and engagement among its community members. Our approach extends beyond the community to help ensure that the community have the necessary support and resources to be sustainable.

Girl Scout Troop 10465 is a South Charleston based Multi-level Troop started in Jan 2023 by Dr. Octavia Cordon & Dr. Shanequa Smith. Both ladies saw there was a need in the Southmoor Apartment Complex for girls and their families. Since then, the Troop has grown to over 20 girls.

”Our young people need opportunities and resources to be successful and It’s our job as leaders to make that happen”.

Octavia Cordon, Ed.D
Founder & Program Director

About Us

ASPIRE is a nonprofit 501 (C)(3) connecting students and young adults to the necessary resources, tools and trainings that will prepare them for the future in making healthy decisions on their journey towards success.

At Aspire, we know that sustained success requires vision, commitment, drive, hard work, resilience, access to resources, and a solid network. Today’s youth – who are tomorrow’s workforce – will need the same.

There are highly motivated and capable students who are ready to chart a course for success. They just need access to the tools and resources to make it happen. Together, we can provide them with those tools.

There is wisdom in investing in these students and helping them become valuable members of the workforce and communities. We each can help guide and encourage them to become their best.
