Elevating Cincinnati's Future Leaders

We provide the missing link between first-generation college students and our local business community.

Coaching and support when it's needed most.

Navigating college can be especially daunting for first-generation students from disadvantaged backgrounds, who often lack access to essential support, resources, and networks needed for success in their academic journeys and future careers.

Meanwhile, Cincinnati's vibrant business community is actively seeking diverse, talented individuals ready to bring fresh perspectives and drive innovation.

At the heart of Level Up Cincinnati is our commitment to bridging this critical divide. As a forward-thinking non-profit, we offer coaching, support, and personal development to empower these aspiring first-generation college students. With the backing of an extensive network of professional coaches and leaders, we're dedicated to catapulting students into rewarding careers and elevating their lives to unprecedented levels.
