Tommy Tanzer, one of the founders of the Bright Futures program, expresses his concerns about changes to the program. The program, which helps first-generation students, currently supports 170 students, with a 85% college graduation rate.
Tanzer voiced concerns about new management driving out key personnel, including Rebecca Gonzalez, and for failing to maintain personal connections with students.
He highlights the program's successes, such as a 100% college acceptance rate and a thriving community. Tanzer plans to launch a website to document the program's history and advocate for its original structure, accusing the foundation of mismanagement and a focus on financial gain.
