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 of Georgetown University as well. 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 am  a   military veteran and acquired my undergraduate and graduate degree.

Olriche Tupusaint

Balancing your education and athletics can be tough. Mr. Jefferson showed me that it can be done. After winning the Football State Championship, I attended Temple University. And I'm still being mentored by Mr. Jefferson today!
