Challenge, Tutor, Counsel, Educate, Graduate!

Since 1989, Buffalo Prep has been improving the educational landscape for disadvantaged minority students in Western New York. Buffalo Prep has identified and met the academic, social and cultural needs of thousands of gifted students who once found too little challenge and support in their neighborhood schools and at home.

Connecting multiple levels of education, this unique pipeline program enhances the quality of life for more than 300 disadvantaged students and their families each year and serves as a steppingstone to a brighter future. We partner with 13 consortium private high schools offering nearly $350,000 in financial aid to our students each year. Buffalo Prep, in turn, provides these schools with the opportunity to take advantage of a more diverse student body, which helps all students, families and staff members forge relationships that transcend racial, ethnic and economic differences.
