What started as a simple prayer in 2015 became a powerful mission transforming students' lives. Seven years later, Marie found her Harvard Kennedy Emerging Leaders Program: helping ambitious students become the leaders colleges want.
Starting with a single student who earned $2M in scholarships and a spot at Stanford, Marie built a system that works. Today, Hutchins Academy students have earned over $12.9M in scholarships and secured spots at elite schools like Stanford, Cornell, and Morehouse.

Loving, Caring, Knowledgeable, and more! Most of today's youth are lost and misguided. However, when you have a place like Hutchins Academy, it's like a home away from home. The youth are working hard and enjoying themselves while building integrity, responsibility, honesty, and more. Marie Mott could not love the children any less than as if they were her own. From academic planning (present and future), breaking past cycles, emotional stability, and learning to deal with cultural interference in the world, they are becoming well-prepared to address and progress in situations that may arise. Friendships, scholarships, confidence building, generational curse breaking, career planning, and more the Hutchins Academy is truly remarkable for our young scholars. I couldn't ask for a better mentor/program for my children.
