Join The Neighborhood

At Neighborhood X Labs, we believe access changes outcomes. Our students deserve more than inspiration—they deserve exposure, guidance, and real relationships with people who can help expand what they see for themselves and their future.

We are building a network of mentors, tutors, and change makers committed to helping low-income, first-generation students across San Francisco access higher education, leadership opportunities, and careers shaping the future.

Mentor — Guide students one-on-one through college planning, career exploration, and personal development

Teach — Support students with SAT/ACT prep, academic tutoring, essay coaching, and portfolio development

Connect — Share your professional world through career talks, site visits, panels, and internship pathways

In many urban communities, students are told — directly or indirectly — that college is not for everyone. At NXL, we are committed to shifting that narrative. We ensure students are equipped, supported, and able to see themselves in higher education spaces and careers that are shaping the future and transforming their communities.
